Event Details

Do you have digital dinosaurs in your closet? The Friends of the Library are sponsoring a Recycling Event for all out-of-date technology items. Bring those dusty dinosaurs to the Library parking lot on this day. Friends will collect used desktops, towers, PC's, laptops, keyboards, printers, phones (cell and landline), etc. All proceeds will be used to benefit our Library's Adult and Children's programs.
