The library is looking for gently used elementary level books (picture books and chapter books) for their 2nd annual Christmas book exchange. If you have any gently used books you'd like to get rid of, the NU library would take them! Simply drop them off at the school during school hours. The book drive will run through December 7th. Thank you!
