Thanks for your help!

   BCPL and libraries throughout the state are participating in Public Library Legislative Day on Wednesday, Feb. 10 in Frankfort. It is a time to meet with elected officials to discuss the importance of public libraries to each and every resident of the Commonwealth. It's also a time to thank legislators for their past support and encourage them to continue.

   Thanks to all the patrons who filled out postcards on Mail It Day - Feb. 3 - telling your legislators why you support public libraries. We got lots of great comments that are on their way to Frankfort. And thanks to BCPL Friends for paying for all the postage!

   Director Debbie Cosper and others from the Library will be in Frankfort on Feb. 10. If you have any additional comments, please call Cosper at 606.329.0518, ext. 1110.

Spring cleaning! 

   Folks in the Minnie C. Winder Room are doing a little early spring cleaning.

   Staff are in the process of weeding out older and infrequently used periodicals to have more shelf space for Virginia and West Virginia books. Our collection is growing so rapidly that we need to make room for new additions in the coming year. New genealogy books are being published all the time, and we strive to keep our collection as current as possible.

   The materials we are removing from the collection will be donated to outside genealogy groups.

   So pardon the mess as we clean up a bit! If you can't find something, just ask.
