Other FOL Board members include President Jim Miller, VP Shirley Sowers, Secretary Alice Newell, Treasurer Betty Mears, and past president Barbara Dark. In addition to the new library building for Old Fort, plans are also underway for a renovation of the Marion Library building. The architects for these projects, John Rogers and Associates of Asheville, will be the speakers at the next general meeting of the Friends of the Library. Light refreshments will be served. The library now has a deposit collection from the Foreign Language Collection of the State Library.
Books are available in Spanish, French and German and are rotated every few months.
Patrons may also make requests for specific titles or languages of interest. The event is free, and a pizza party will end the evening. In the event of rain, the program will be held inside the library. Because our children's collection is so heavily used, new titles are always needed. Honorees will receive a letter telling them about your gift in their name.
