The Dansville Public Library book sale raised more money and involved more volunteers than any previous year ‘ $2,452 and 49 volunteers. Members of the Friends of the Library and Today’s Widow conducted the weeklong event.
Previously, the most money raised was $1,665.
‘The efforts of the unprecedented number of volunteers really paid off,’ said Lynne Blum, President of the Friends of the Dansville Public Library. ‘All of the money raised will be used for materials and services for the Library. It is obvious that our community believes this is a vital cause.’
More than 110 volunteer hours were recorded during the week. The library notes a minimum number of remainders. "Castile Library graciously picks up remaining boxes of books for their sale," Director Teresa Dearing noted. "This year, we were able to give them an excellent selection. Even with the increased number of items for sale this year, only 36 boxes were left over." Last year Castile took out 30 boxes, Dearing noted.
