Open House and Ribbon Cutting for New Teen Space at Wilmington Public Library

Friends of the Library Furnish New Teen Room at Library

All steps lead to the new Teen Room on the second floor of the Wilmington Public Library (WPL), where most of the furnishings were bought with a contribution from the Friends of the Wilmington Public Library (FOL).

Several chairs, stools and an area rug were purchased with funds from the FOL, a volunteer group that supports WPL projects and collects, stocks and rotates books that are available at the library for a monetary donation (but not for resale).

The adult book room is located to the immediate left upon entering the main entrance of the library. Children and young adult books are available on a bookshelf across the room from the circulation desk.

The group welcomes new members who can assist with regular activities and special events and attend meetings at 2:30 p.m. on the fourth Tuesday of every month in Kirk Room A.

The group also has a Facebook page and group president Jim Hayslip can be contacted at (937) 556-8204 if interested in becoming involved.
