The 2008 Book Festival date is set: Saturday, October 4, 2008. Now volunteers are needed to help plan this exciting annual event on Haddon Avenue. We welcome book lovers to join us at the Collingswood Library on Wednesday, April 2 at 7:30 p.m. for our first Book Festival planning meeting. The informal get together will be held in the children’s library on the second floor.

This is a great way to get involved in your town! We are looking for people of all ages to help with recruiting authors, publicity, entertainment, children’s events and day-of activities.

Anyone who would like to be part of the action can join the April 2 meeting at the Library or contact Jean Brennan at 856-854-6528 or jbren61222@aol.com.
