[LM_NET] GEN: Library Booster Group

[Susan McCaffrey <SMcCaffr@EGRPS.ORG>]

Does anyone have experience or advice about starting a Library Booster group for 
schools?  We are a district with 3 elementaries, 1 middle, and 1 high school in an 
affluent, active community with much parental support but, like libraries 
everywhere, we are having difficulty keeping up with decreasing budgets and 
personnel.  We wonder if a Library Booster group  could help with raising funds and 
helping with activities like book fairs and clerical duties.  If you have had 
experience, either negative or positive, please let me know.
 
Thanks!
