It’s time once again for the Great Pumpkin Hunt! During the month of October, Miss Helen will have pumpkins hidden OUTDOORS in the library garden for children to find. Check them off as you find them, and turn in your sheet at the downstairs desk to receive a small prize.
We know you value the services and resources provided by your public library, but just how much are those services worth? How much would you pay out-of-pocket if the library didn't exist, or if these services and resources weren't available at no cost?
Take a moment and reflect on your library use over the past month, then plug those numbers into the form. This page will calculate a total value related to the items you checked out and the services and resources you used. It also calculates a "return on investment" that is based on the per capita library expenditures in your community.
