Honor a Special Person by...

You may donate a new, hardback book in memory of a loved one, or to honor a special person in your life. We display these books with signage here in the Library for several weeks after the initial gift is given. There is a bookplate placed in the front cover of the book to honor the gift. This is a great way to show love and appreciation for teachers, mentors, grandparents, grandchildren, etc. If you are interested in doing this, please call the Library at 770-795-3225.
