The Friends of Kreutz Creek Valley Library are tasked with raising approximately $32,000 of the $90,000 yearly operating costs for our library. This amounts to $108.00 per day that the Friends must raise representing the local contribution. Now you can assist the Friends by participating in their “Sponsor a Day” program. By sponsoring a day you are helping to cover the costs of programs such as Babies and Toddlers story times and Preschool story times, the summer reading club program and Tween activities. You'll be supporting the community’s access to 6 computers and the Internet, e-books, special informational programs for all ages, free WIFI, and tech assistance from our “Tech Guru”. Additionally, you will be supporting the free access to books, magazines, audio CDs and on-line resources You may “Sponsor a Day” in recognition of someone special, in memory of someone or to commemorate a special date/milestone.

Page 3 President’s message On Saturday, October 4th, the KC Friends held our second big book sale for the year. It was held in the new Hellam Township Maintenance Building across the street from the library. This has proved to be a very convenient spot to have our book sales. There is plenty of room for the thousands of books we collect throughout the year. I want to say a thank you to Brett Raver and his Township Maintenance crew for cleaning out the building and getting it ready for the sale. This year we raised $3,400.00 for the Kreutz Creek Valley Library. In addition to the books, we sold bake goods and jewelry which was also donated by our patrons. These are always popular spots to check out when patrons get tired of looking at books. Thank you to everyone who donated books, baked goods, and jewelry. As you can see it all adds up to a successful sale. All the money we make from our two book sales each year is used for direct costs for the library. We pay a third of the operating costs of the library to the York County Library System which comes to $32,000 for this year. We also sponsor special programs at the library which include the Summer Reading Program. The sale is a lot of work to set up and tear down. Just getting the boxes of books moved from our storage container next to the library to the building across the street takes a borrowed truck and some strong backs. However before that we have to spend time organizing the books and arranging for the advertising. There were a lot of hands involved and I would like to thank everyone who worked to make the sale possible. I also want to remind you that our Fall Fundraising Campaign has started. Letters have gone out to Hellam Township residents in their Fall Township Newsletter. We also send fundraising letters to our previous donors. Otherwise you can download a donation form or pick one up at the library. This year we are raffling off a $150.00 Amazon gift card. Each donation of $25 will get you one raffle ticket. For example if you donate $100, your name will be placed in the raffle 4 times. The drawing will be held on Thursday, December 18th at the library. Please have your donations to the library by Saturday, December 13th so you can be entered in the drawing.

This is the third issue using this new site.. Unfortunately, we lost many of our email addresses. I have used an old list, but some of you may have changed addresses, left the area, or discontinued your issues for some other reason. I apologize for this difficulty. With this new site, you will be able to add, edit your address, or discontinue your notice. If you do not open your notice letter, your name will automatically be deleted after six issues. And, I should be able to use one mailing rather than the two or three which I had to do previously. THANK YOU, CORY> You can continue to view the newsletter by accessing our website www.kcvlfriends.org or for the newsletter directly , using www.kcvlfriends.org/newsletter/pdf. Please review our updated website, again, thanks to Cory! Page 9 Photographs from the Fund- Raising Event in October Photos submitted by Betty Bell, Vice-President of Friends A big “THANK YOU” to all of you who have supported your Library by donating your books, baked goods, and jewelry and THANK YOU to ALL OF YOU who came out to set up and tear down. As well as all who have given up their Saturday to work on this project. But without you, the ATTENDEES who visited on Saturday and made your purchases, it would have all in vain. As a result of it all, the KCVL grossed $3400.00 which amounts to one month’s payment due to the York County Library System. Again, we THANK YOU ALL SET UP AND READY TO GO! Page 10 KINDLES & WOWBRARY GET FREE ALERTS About the newest Books, Movies, & Music by signing up for WOWBRARY on the York County Library website. (www.yorklibraries.org) From this site you can support the library when shopping at Amazon. Amazon is donating 7.5% of your purchases to the library. Wowbrary is a fun way to keep informed when something new arrives at the library. Can’t find the word Wowbrary in the dictionary? According to an article, BOOK BUZZ, by Sarah Chain,this is a new service from @YorkLibraries called Wowbrary. The idea is pretty simple: It highlights all the newitems available at your local library each week — books, of course, but also media items like DVDs and ebooks. From the website, you will. You can tailor it to your interest. Once you sign up to receive the email, new items are broken down by categories like mysteries and thrillers, or cooking, food and wine. So if you’re interested in just sports, or just children’s titles, it’s easy to zero in on them. It’s a no-commitment way to browse. Whenever you’re looking for a new book to read— voila! You have a slew of options right at your fingertips. It’s easy to scroll through and read the plot summaries to see if you might be interested. Borrowing is easy as pie. Once you find a book (or other item) you’d like to check out, click “Borrow.” It takes you right to the York County Libraries catalog, where you can log in and request the book. “This is a great new way to enjoy and use your library more,” Deb Sullivan, community relations director for the York County Libraries, said in an email. “Our cardholders really enjoy having the list of new titles arrive in their email. It keeps them informed and provides a convenient way to borrow the titles they want to read.” To sign up, just visit www.wowbrary.org. Enter your zip code and select York County Libraries, and then enter your email address. You can also sign up for an RSS feed, if you’d prefer. All that’s left is sitting back and waiting for your weekly email —and of course, finding time to read all those books! Sarah Chain is the books editor and a multiplatform copy editor at the York Daily Record / Sunday News. She dabbles in green living, food, gardening and -- of course -- all things books-related.
