Come 'fill up' for the weekend

Filling up your gas tank for the weekend?  That can get expensive.

Come fill up at the library, too, with a big bag of books, magazines, music, and movies.   

Now that's a great value to start your weekend off right!

Here's how YOU can help your libraries


It's National Library Week!

That makes it the perfect week to let state
legislators and the governor know how
 important libraries are to you and to
Abbeville County.

It will only take a few minutes but your message
will make a difference. The South Carolina State
Library Association has provided an easy and
effective way for you to write your elected
officials to let them know how much you value
the libraries in the community. Here is that link:

Consider sharing a personal story about how your public, school, or college library
makes a positive impact in your own community. For example, let your elected
officials know how much your children depend on their school libraries to help them
succeed in school, or explain how much you depend on your public library to connect
you to information you need.

Then, please forward this message to your friends, family, and colleagues
 in the state. Ask them to take this opportunity to support libraries in their
communities, too!

Thank you for advocating for the libraries you love!
