Can you build a library with flowers? The South Hadley Public Library is holding an online flower fundraiser through April 29 to raise money towards a new library building. Flower Power Fundraising offers a completely green way to raise money -- no catalogs or order forms to recycle... everything is handled over the computer, from automated emails to a customized website and ordering form. Our goal this first year is to raise $1,000 and so far we've had a positive response. We used the Friends of the Library list as a base for emails and publicized it with handouts, Facebook, and a link from our homepage. I figure other libraries may be interested in this, and if you feel the urge to place an order while you're looking around.... click here.

WMRLS Night at the MassMutual Center A Grand Success!
Thank you to all of our member libraries that participated in our WMRLS Night at the MassMutual Center fundraiser on Saturday, January 24. According to the Republican newspaper, there were 6,789 people in attendance at the sold out game, the most since November 16, 2001.
The Falcons were very pleased by the turnout, and they hope to offer another fundraising opportunity for WMRLS next year, with more advance notice so more libraries can join in the fun. ~ Sincerely, John Ramsay, Administrator, WMRLS
