| Want to help your library? |
|
| Newport Library offers several
opportunities to do just that with the following programs:
Adopt-A-Book is a wonderful way to honor or memorialize an individual or
group while supporting your local library. A bookplate will be placed in the
front of all adopted books in acknowledgement of the gift.
Adopt-A-Shelf is a perfect way for youth to help
the library and earn community service hours. The sign-up sheet is at the
front desk and you will need written permission from a parent or guardian.
This program is for both middle school and high school students.
Adult volunteers are also welcome to come and
straighten shelves. Applications are available at the front desk. |
