Special Events at the Library

Black Swamp Arts Council is sponsoring a drama class for kids and a felt purse class for adults during February and March.

 

 Kids Take the Stage -- Enroll in this drama program designed to help kids age 6-10 learn about the basics of theater through fun games and workshops. Kids will learn how to work together as a cast and build self-confidence for their next big audition.

Cholesterol Screening

The Fulton County Health Center will conduct cholesterol screening at the library on Tuesday, March 2 from 4-7 pm in the library's community room.  Since this event is held in conjunction with the Heart Radiothon of Fulton County, there is a suggested donation of $5.00 for the screening, with all of the money going to the Radiothon.

The Library in 2009

2009 was a very challenging year for the library as we saw overall revenue decrease almost $51,000. By reducing expenditures for materials by 30% and salaries by 9% due to fewer hours, we were able to end the year with a balance of $34,094 in the General Fund for operating expenses. This amount was carried over to the new year to allow us to pay bills until levy money is received in March. Why is this necessary?  Because in January we received $18,251 in state revenue, but our expenditures totaled $25,660, which was almost entirely for fixed costs expenses.
