GREAT NEWS – as of 12/09/2019 the Campaign has raised over $190,000 towards our goal of $425,000 for our “““BOOKMARKING “BOOKMARKING OUR FUTUREFUTURE”” Campaign. We will still need everyone's help from the Greenland community to reach our final goal. It’s amazing what we can accomplish when we work together. We will all benefit from the new and updated Weeks Public Library!

Everyone should have received their invitation letter to participate in our “““BOOKMARKING“BOOKMARKING OUR FUTUREFUTURE”” Campaign which included a brochure to answer any questions you may have along with a pledge card and return envelope. We would like to have all pledge commitments returned by the end of December 2019 so we can begin planning for the updates and construction that will begin in the Spring of 2020. Fulfillment of your commitment will need to be paid by December 2020.

If you so choose, gifts of $1,000.00 or more will be displayed on a recognition plaque at the library .
