Annual Book Fund Drive
November 10, 2009
Dear Friend:
Each year at this time, we write to friends in the community to share the success stories of the gem we share in the Sewickley Public Library and this year is no exception. Those successes can be demonstrated via an assortment of measures and here are just a few from the past year:
- Over 21,044 people attended programs, workshops, meetings or seminars
- Over 355,349 items were checked out
- Over 94,145 computer log-in sessions
- 10,249 new books, DVDs, audio books and magazines were added to the collection
- 285,629 - the astounding number of people who walked through the Library doors in the past year
This year, the Friends of the Sewickley Public Library made donations allowing for significant enhancement of the library's collections. The Friends make annual contributions to the library's Summer reading Clubs and Battle of the Books competitions. Funds were provided to purchase Spanish books and other items in support of a Spanish program for the Children's Department and for the microfilming of the Sewickley Herald. The Friends also provided funds for the refinishing of chairs used throughout the Library. In addition, the Friends are very proud to join with the Library in celebrating the 10th anniversary of the building renovation.
One of the roles of the Friends of the Library is to foster the use of the Library. To accomplish this role, the Friends perform a variety of fund-raising activities including Used Book Sales, Savoring Sewickley, and this yearly mailing. The funds earned or collected by the Friends enable the Library to purchase new books and the other materials that we enjoy on a daily basis.
Please help us invest in the ongoing growth of the Sewickley Public Library by sending a tax deductible check to the Friends of the Sewickley Public Library.
We truly appreciate your support!
