THE REVIEW 9781-2nd St, Sidney B.C.

Libraries need more than books
— they need friends.

So says Noel Richardsen, who is
spearheading a Friends of the
Library association for the new
Central Saanich library.

“T think libraries should have
support from the community. The
community should be involved
with them.”

Ideas discussed-at the first meet-
ing of the group, held April 18 at
the library, included a library
newsletter, a book discussion
group and library fundraising.

The association would also like
lo sponsor guest speakers on pol-
lution, conservation and health at
the library, talks by visiting authors
plus ups for parents on books for
children and encouraging ‘reading.

“We'd like to have a- program —

started by September.”

The group will also do fundrais-
ing for the library, including the
sale of discarded books.

While the Friends. do not make
policy for the library, they can help
support improvements in library

@operation. The group in Sidney, of

which Richardscn was a member,
has supported the library: both
financialiy and politically.

“The library is a community
resource. It shouldn’t be ‘them’
running it and us using it.” The
firsL meeting attracted a small. but
