NCLS Receives $60,000 from Remaining Assets of Constantia Library

On Friday, June 15th, Steve Bolton and Amy Zuch traveled to the site of the old Constantia Library (Julie Thurston Library Guild) to receive a donation of $60,000 from the remaining assets of the guild after their dissolution and sale of  property.  It was wonderful to see the dedicated volunteers who kept the library going for so many years, but was at the same time bittersweet.  Thank you so much to all the Julie Thurston Library Guild members for this generous donation.
