What’ s Your Story?
Are you a former / current Peters Township Public Library patron, volunteer, staff member, or board member with a fond memory to share? Perhaps it was sitting with your children at storytime in the‘ 70s, helping with a special fundraiser over the past six decades, or discovering a book by a new author on our shelves at one of our four previous locations? Do you have a special message about how the library has made a difference in your life? Your story can be as brief as,“ I love the library because …” or as reminiscent as,“ My oldest memory of the library was when …” Whatever the story about the library between 1957 to 2017, we’ d love to film you sharing YOUR special memory. Families messages are welcome too!
Diane Lioon, secretary of The Peters Township Library Foundation, is coordinating several sessions with photographer / videographer Jim McNutt to videotape you and your brief message. Sessions will be held upstairs in our Local History Room on the following dates and times. Sign up at the Circulation Desk for your 20-minute time slot. eters Township
