Furniture and Equipment Sale

The Flesh Public Library will be holding a furniture and equipment sale on Saturday, July 12 from 9:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. in the program room at the library. There will be desks, chairs, computers, printers, as well as books, magazines, videos, etc. Hope to see you there!

As the move to our new building approaches many of us will become nostalgic for the building we are currently occupying. If you have a special memory of the library you would like to share please email me your story. It will be included in a special booklet about the Flesh Public Library. Please submit by August 15, 2008.
