Weeding at the Resource Center

Weeding?  At the Resource Center?  What does that mean?

Well, it doesn't mean that we've replaced our bookshelves with raised beds and our books with overgrown plants!  'Weeding' in any library or Resource Center is similar to garden weeding, though.

On Thursday, a dedicated group of 5 volunteers from First Presbyterian Church, Virginia Beach, arrived.  They came in with smiling faces, generous hearts and willing hands.
 Those willing hands touched almost every item on every shelf in our Resource Center, checking for damage, stains, wear, duplicates, outdated formats, and superseded information.  Each item was checked and studied, sometimes by more than one volunteer.

This 'weeding' process helps to refresh our shelves and make room for new resources, keeping our collection of resources current and inviting.
The Resource Center would like to extend a big...

Thank You!!!
  
...to the energetic and motivated volunteers from First Virginia Beach for spending the day 'weeding'!

PS:  We feed volunteers, so prayerfully consider sharing your time helping out in the Resource Center!
