Community Closet Donates $1,000 to the New Lisbon Memorial Library Building Fund
Eileen Stickney, volunteer, presents a check for $1,000 to the New Lisbon Library Director, Deanna Rosier. The community closet is a re-sale store located on Adams Street in New Lisbon. With the help of 20 enthusiastic volunteers, this non-profit organization takes in resalable household items (excluding TVs, printers and other major electronics). They are currently in their sixth year of operation and all proceeds are given to qualifying non-profit entities. The store is open from 12-5pm Mon-Fri and 8-12 on Sat.
The donated money will be put into an account set up for future remodeling and building expansion of the library.
2012 will mark the 75th year of New Lisbon having a municipal library and we will be doing various fundraising activities to support our future building plans. Watch for more info to come…

$75 for 75years
We are excited to grow and expand the Library for the enjoyment and convenience of our community!
When you come into the Library, see what 1,000 legos look like. We have made up a mock building using 1,000 legos. We will be selling individual Legos for $75, which will go to our Remodeling and Expansion Fund. Throughout the year we will be trying to build a replica of our mock building. Businesses, families and individuals are encouraged to have your name documented in the $75 for 75 years book to be kept for historical purposes.
If you love your Library…Let it show…Please Help Us Grow!!
