Galveston County Library System News Page 1 Galveston County Library System News Dickinson • Friendswood • Galveston • Hitchcock • La Marque • League City • Santa Fe • Texas City Spring 2021 Volume 19, Issue 1 The Galveston County Commissioners Court makes Extension Services available to Galveston County residents by providing 100% of funding for this valuable service. Galveston County Library System Extension Services The previous 12 months have been exceptionally difficult on all patrons, including our most vulnerable. We have had to scale back service to nursing homes and assisted living centers. Pre-schools closed during the initial COVID shut down, and then slowly reopened. We added them back to the roster as soon as we were able to do so in a safe manner for all involved. We remain in contact with all of our partners, checking in periodically, ascertaining their readiness to receive library materials. Extension Services, based out of Rosenberg Library, serves Galveston County’s most vulnerable and needy citizens at opposite ends of the age spectrum. More than 150 library materials are delivered on a daily basis (39k items per year) to preschool students, residents at assisted living facilities, and county residents who are no longer able to leave their homes to visit the library. Books are also delivered to public schools and smaller libraries to help bolster their collections and provide their patrons with a wider selection of materials. Marilyn Lyons, Extension Services staff clerk, drives more than 6,000 miles per year across the county, including making deliveries to Bolivar Island. She serves over 3,000 community partners at over 40 locations. -

It divided nations, redefined international alliances, devastated populations, ethnic groups and economies, and ushered in an era known as the Cold War. From 1941 to 1945, Americans — and particularly Texans — rallied to supply unprecedented levels of manpower and equipment, while sacrificing much to support the wartime effort. As with any major conflict, the causes of World War II were complex.
