The
Friends of the Osterhout Free Library
was formed shortly after the Agnes
Flood of 1972. The group began by raising funds
to help the library through the sale of bookmarks, cookies, and books, as well
as hosting wine and cheese events and fundraising dinners.
Eventually, the annual Book Sale became
the main fundraising event coordinated
by the Friends. Throughout the
year, members sort and organize books
which are donated by library patrons.
The third week of June is when the
annual Book Sale is held on the library
lawn. Their
goal each year is to surpass the previous year's profit. All
money raised by the Friends goes
directly to supporting the library's
mission. |
