ALA Adopt a Library Program:
Helping Libraries in the Gulf Region
Recover and Rebuild

To help the libraries in the Gulf region that were damaged or destroyed by Hurricane Katrina, the American Library Association has set up an ‘Adopt a Library Program.’ The program provides an opportunity for libraries of all types in the US to provide assistance to the libraries in need.  

Support may come in many ways (books, computers, fundraising, volunteers, etc.)

The Wauconda Area Library has registered to participate in this program, and even as the library awaits further instructions, the library has already accumulated some materials that will be offered to this program.

At the library's special celebration, "A Great Day @ Your Library", the library will staff a table at which money donations will be accepted for both the Red Cross Katrina Relief program and ALA's Adopt-a-Library program.
