Saturday Snap – We Get Donations…

Always interesting to see the things people will donate to the library (some people don’t come in to talk to us, they just slip their items into the return slot overnight so we can find all sorts of surprises!) Now, the fun library question – would you put these on your Book Sale table like […]
