On top of the books from the booklist we also received 20 math and science books for a total of 83 books. The math and science collection was donated by Bill Strawbridge and Meg Wallhagen and the Libri Foundation. The book \u201cWomen Astronomers: Reaching for the Stars\u201d was donated by the author, Mabel Armstrong.

The rural town library should serve a population of under 10,000 (usually under 5,000). They must have an active children\u2019s department, a limited operating budget, and not be close to a city with a population over 40,000.<\/p>\n<p>We are just finishing up getting them into the computer and ready to check out.
