Oxford library reports record book sale and wins Brownstone Book Fund grant for 100 free books
Summary
Library staff reported 82 attendees at a fall book sale (the highest amount raised to date), 331 patrons and 77 program attendees in September, and that the library was awarded 100 free books through the Brownstone Book Fund.
Lauren, library staff, told the council that 82 people attended the fall book sale and that it was the library’s highest-grossing sale to date. She said the library recorded 331 patrons and 77 program participants in September and that it had been awarded a Brownstone Book Fund grant that will provide 100 free books to the library.
The report was delivered during the Library Report portion of the Oct. 8 agenda; no council action on the grant was recorded in the transcript. The library’s news represents a community-service development for local readers and children’s programming.
Council did not take further action on the grant during the meeting, and the transcript contains no additional detail about how the books will be distributed or used.
