TRIVIA CONTEST ON CFL’S FACEBOOK PAGE & BLOG
Have you read the trivia question for March on the library’s
blog or Facebook page? It’s a question about Douglas Adams’s
Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. Patrons may respond
via comments on the blog or the Facebook page or bring answers in
person to the Patron Services desk. All correct responses will be
gathered, and one winner will be drawn at the end of each month.
That person may choose to have fines forgiven up to $5 or may borrow
up to five DVDs from our collection at no charge. http://cantonfreelibrary.blogspot.com

PENNIES FOR PEACEPROJECT
Canton Free Library and its branches are collecting pennies for
a program called PENNIES FOR PEACE,
pennies that will help fund schools and libraries for children in
remote areas of Afghanistan and Pakistan. The project is a division
of the Central Asia Institute that helps Greg Mortenson, author
of Three Cups of Tea and Stones into Schools,
promote peace through education by building schools and libraries,
most of them for girls, in these two countries. We will conduct
the campaign through the month of March. Businesses and organizations
that would like to donate to this cause should contact Library Director
Lyn Swafford at 386-3712. Give her a call! Who will collect the
most pennies? Children? Teens? Adults?
