The Board-Book Bin

The most chewed-on collection in the system.

These books are read, gummed, dropped, retrieved, and read again. They are built for it. So is the bin.

Why It Matters

The storytimes, welcoming spaces, useful technology, and small details that make a child feel at home in the library do not happen by accident. They come from dedicated library staff, and from neighbors who choose to help fund something beyond the minimum.

From Summer Reading to equipment, training, programs, and improvements to library spaces, Friends support helps turn good ideas into memorable experiences.

Every naming is ceremonial. The help it provides is real.
