Harbingers of spring are all around us.

The JFHML Friends Foundation, which is the fundraising arm of the Hallett Library, has begun it's Membership Drive for 2016. Please consider becoming a Friend. If you are already a JFHML Friend, your renewal may be submitted at any time! The Friends were formed in 2011 to help with sustaining Library funding. Their impact has been immediate and substantial. With the help of our Friends, the JFHML has been able to offer programming, materials and technology to serve the needs of the patrons we serve. The Friends operate Backstreet Books, the successful on-site used book & gift store and offer other fundraisers throughout the year for special wish-list items. We have several Business Friends (listed to the right on this e-newsletter) which we prominently rotate each week on our electronic sign on the highway. This week, our sign declares:
THANK YOU BUSINESS FRIEND~
Den of Antiquity.
We are grateful and appreciative of our partnerships within the community. We partner with CRMC and Crosby-Ironton School District #182 for e-book access for all. We have found that by working together absolutely ANYTHING is possible!
Thank you once again for your partnership with us as we present the best public library we possibly can---- to YOU!
Happy Spring!
