Hi All,
On Tuesday Nov 10th the Warren County Board of Supervisors meets. They will be talking about book aid funding all libraries in Warren County. So far this funding has gone from $53,000 to $50,000 a year. Now they are talking about reducing that to $25,000 or even lower.
The amount each library gets is based on circulation. Crandall gets $30,000. We get about $2500.00. Every other library in Warren county gets money as well. Even tho Crandall gets $30,000 the books they buy are available free to us through inter-library loan.
What can you do? Please call Gene Merlino at the town hall 696-2713. Just let him know you are concerned about funding for library book aid. One book goes out an average of 12 times (some a lot more). It is a good value for the money. Please be nice to Gene. The Town of Lake Luzerne and Gene are very supportive of the library.

Thursday the book club picks up their new book. It is Stephen Hunter’s Hot Springs. Packed with page-turning action, sex, sin and crime, Stephen Hunter’s Hot Srings is at once a relentlessly violent and deeply touching story.
The book club is open to all. Order your book today. You have approximately one month to read it.

Hi,
It’s me, your friendly library director Cynthia. It occured to me that I might not have to spend money on things, for the library, that other people would like to find a good home for.
For instance, some people get the newspaper everyday with a rubber band tied around it. What do you do with all those rubber bands? Give them to the library. We could use them to put groups of on- hold books together.
If you have a stash of pens and pencils in every room maybe you might like to clean out a few? We go through our share.
Did your kids use most of a sprial notebook and now need new ones for school? Rip out the used pages. We can use the rest of the pages for computer sign in.
Do you buy books and not borrow them from the library? Donate them here while they are still new. Some we can add to the collection so dozens of people can read them. The best way to recycle your books!
We could also use a clip board.
Remember the craft fair and HUGE book sale is this Saturday!
