LIBRARY EARNS EXCELLENCE IN LIBRARIES AWARD,
AGAIN
The Achievement of Excellence in Libraries Award is
selected annually by a committee of members from the Texas Municipal
Library Directors Association. For the 4th year in a row, the Sachse Public Library received the
Texas Municipal League Director's Award for Service in
Excellence in Libraries. The Sachse Public
Library continues to demonstrate excellence in all 10 areas required to qualify.
Of the 565 public libraries in Texas, only 27 were chosen to receive
this award. Congratulations to Dolores Greenwald and her staff,
the Friends of the Library, who assist with financial and marketing
support, and the members of the Library Board, who give their time,
energy and enthusiasm to promote the library. LIBRARY SERVICES COSTLY IF YOU HAD TO PAY Ever wonder how much you would pay for the services provided by your library for free?

CITY COUNCIL SUPPORTS THE LIBRARY'S READ CAMPAIGN
SMALL BUSINESS LIBRARY OPENS
When the Chamber of Commerce moved out of the Red Caboose on Highway 78, some wondered what would become of the empty office space. Dolores Greenwald, Director of Library Services had a plan. With a business grant from the Sachse Economic Development Corporation, the "okay" from the Chamber of Commerce to use the facility, and a lot of hard work from library personnel and the Friends of the Library, the Sachse Small Business Library is now a reality. Located at 5941 Highway 78, the library provides resources to help business owners with marketing and planning strategies, as well as research on demographics and statistics. The facility will be manned with the help of volunteers. For more information please call 972-530-8966.
If you are interested in volunteering at the library, please call 972.530.8966. If you are interested in becoming a member of The Friends of the Library, click here to download the application.
