To the Editor:

 The volunteers from the Friends of the C.H. Booth Library held their usual Fall Donation Day event on Sunday October 18th. It was a pleasure to spend the day greeting those generous citizens bringing boxes, bags, and car loads of books, records, DVDs, CDs, and puzzles to donate.

Thank you to everyone who dropped off collections to support the Friends’ effort. We were delighted with the overwhelming response to our request for donations and appreciative of the variety and qual-ity of the offerings. The items collected on Sunday will be prepared for our Annual Book Sale at the Reed Intermediate School beginning Saturday, July 9, 2016 and running until Wednesday July 13. Hope to see you there.

For anyone who was unable to drop off donations, you can bring your books and other items to the li-brary or to our trailer at the transfer station anytime those facilities are open. We can also set up a pickup if you leave a message on our phone (203-270-4537).
