Many of the more popular subject areas are quite complete as a result of wonderful donations in the past. A lot of time and thought is put into the selection of all materials so that the dollar amount of the donation is spent appropriately, and so that we can be sure that each item will be used and enjoyed by many people. Each use of an honor or memorial item is a way of remembering your designee time and time again.<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n If you have any questions or would like to make a donation, please contact the library.<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Visit the White Pine Library in Stanton at 106 E.
