Dear Community,
If you want access to thousands of wonderful books and records, you need to head to the Sonoma County Fairgrounds and look in the dumpsters before the garbage trucks come and hall them all away in the morning. Tonight, all of the leftover books from the Friends of the Library event were thrown into giant dumpsters! I am appalled to see how all of these books are going into the landfill. I would think that the Friends of the Library would find a better use for these books than to dump them. I know that many went to the jail system, but two of the GIGANTIC 15 ft long dumpsters (not the normal size) were filled up. There are lots of people on this planet who need books. What a waste. I hope that next time there can be a better solution. Any ideas, suggestions? Thanks!
