Friends of the Library invite you to become a member

Looking to make new Friends and urge others to renew their pledge, the Friends of the Bluffton Public Library are pounding the pavement during their annual membership drive.

To get the word out, the Friends will be posting flyers throughout the village and have stocked the library with brochures showing how they have helped the library in 2010.

Highlights of the year include raising $2,800 in fundraisers and donations, and pledging $1,350 to support young adult and children's services in 2011.
