Just putting out the word that in Harper we have the HTLC (Harper Library Library Council). This group of kids (ages 5th grade - 12th grade) are active, involved & great!
They hold fund raisers for various "projects" at the library. We are scheduled to go buy some new chairs for the library with the money from their last fund raiser. Next will be a fund raiser to buy the paint for the interior of the library, then we will schedule a painting day to do the work! The Council has a constitiution & something I, as the Library Director, that they put in was that in order to hold an office a member has to put in at least one hour of "library work" per month. They do it too! Rather it is sesonal decorating, putting away books, collecting money from cans (they placed cans in local businesses to collect money) or whatever comes up. They are an awesome bunch of kids & I am honored to be working with them.
