Volunteers

Book Sale Volunteers, July 4, 2005
Our
volunteers do many valuable things for the library.
We have volunteers who help with our library grounds, both inside and
out. Bernice Gilchrist takes care of all of the library's indoor plants
and provides the library with seasonal decorations; Marsha
DeMay waters and weeds the flowers and shrubs
outside during the summer; and Pat Polukas,
who among other things, coordinates the 4-H library gardening and cleanup
days.
We have volunteers who faithfully do many general tasks for the library,
including the processing of library materials, computer inputting, card
catalog filing, and many other tasks. These wonderful volunteers include
Beverly Meginnes, Shirley Herman and Susie
Shoemaker.
We have volunteers who provide us with very particular services: Margie
and Roy Redding deliver books to homebound patrons monthly, Tina Krause
covers book jackets, Helen Mogill created and authors this website, and
Neil Sallee did much of our accounting in the
past year.
We offer a great deal of thanks to our board members, who guide the
library and who give many hours over the years to the library: Tim
Mogill, President, Mary Ann Boyd, Vice-President, DeAnna Belz, Secretary,
Mark Schwamberger, Treasurer, Margaret Egebrecht, Kathryn Nelson, and
Rochelle Wardel.
We thank each and every volunteer mentioned and to the following who
donate their time: the 4-H Busy Bees, the Lion's Club, the Boy Scouts, the
Cub Scouts, our newsletter contacts (Gail Ann Briggs, Pat
Pulokas, Vicky Hogan, Donna
Coit), and other organizations for all that
they give to the library and to this community.

Thanks to Beverly M., who volunteers here and
who got a State Farm Good Neighbors Grant for the
library, we now have a new set of World Book
Encyclopedias! December, 2005

Every year the Towanda
District Library hosted a volunteer appreciation event for the library's
