Wallet Note: Annual Appeal
Wednesday, January 1, 1997

Members and friends of the Library once again have raised the Annual Appeal to new heights. The 1995-1996 total is $134,925, a 14 percent increase from 1994-1995. This is the fourth record high in as many years and an 89 percent increase from 1991-1992, the lowest recent level, when only $71,378 was contributed. This increase far exceeds inflation (up 18 percent since January 1992). As a result, the Library has been able to buy more books. Next year, provided your wonderful generosity continues, we can repair the roof as well (there have been several leaks). Thank you!
