BOOKS WANTED

06.26.2017 By: Jason at MiniBury.com

Now that school is out, and you’re looking forward to summer, Addison County Readers (ACR) needs your and your children’s help to collect books that your children no longer read.  Books can be donated to Addison County Readers, sponsors of the Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library program. Haven’t heard of the Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library? We’ve written about how they deliver free books to children birth – age 5. ACR sells these donated books to help to cover the $30 per child per year that it costs to deliver books to over 1,100 Addison County preschoolers currently enrolled in the Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library program.

If you’d like to donate, books can be left at Ilsley Library in Middlebury or at Lawrence Memorial Library in Bristol.  Or you can call or email Dinah Bain at 802-758-2218 or cdbain@gmavt.net.
