The library’s required contribution of $400 will be raised by a Read-a-thon from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday, Feb. 3. The Pilcrow Foundation’s 2-to-1 matching grant will enable the library to select $1,200 worth of books from the Foundation’s booklist.

Book plates will be placed in each new book acknowledging every participating individual’s donation. Refreshments will be offered during the Read-a-thon, and prizes will be awarded.

The Pilcrow Foundation offers this grant to small rural libraries in the country that would not otherwise be able to acquire these books because of limited budgets.
