The Growing Tree. Be a part of the "Growing Tree" at the Potterville Benton Township District Library. The leaves on the tree represent the names of people and groups who have donated to our Library. You can donate in memory of someone or simply because you love your library!

For a minimum donation of $50 we will add your name to one of the leaves on our "Growing Tree". The proceeds from these leaves will go toward helping the Library continue to grow in a variety of ways such as purchasing special books, furniture or items for the Library or purchasing new equipment to replace some that is outdated. We also will use some of the funds to promote the Library to bring in special speakers and programs and by helping to sponsor programs in the community that encourage reading.

If you are interested in becoming a part of our "Growing Tree" please see one of the Librarians or call 645-2989.

The Board of Trustees of the Potterville Benton Township District Library meets the 1st Monday of each month at 7:00 PM right at the library. If the 1st Monday falls on a holiday, the meeting will be the following day. For further information, contact the Library at 645-2989.

Our new circulation desk. The Friends of the Potterville Benton Township District Library were formed in 1963 and have been active ever since providing both financial and volunteer help to the Library.

Members of the Friends provide support for the long range goals of the Library through service and financial contributions.

Some of the objectives of the Friends are to establish a closer relationship between the library and the community. Encourage community participation in library activities and raise funds for projects, activities, or acquisitions in excess of those provided for by the general library budget.

The Friends hold at least two book sales a year – one in the summer (during Gizzard Fest) and one at Christmas time (Holiday Open House). They also have used books for sale all year long as well as book bags printed with the library logo. The Friends recently had a beautiful new oak circulation desk built and installed. This is the newest item in a long list of special chairs, lamps, and other furnishings they have provided over the years.

Library Bookbags

There is no charge for membership, so please join us for an enjoyable social experience that can make a difference. The Friends meet at 7:00pm the second Thursday of every month at the library.

Please contact the Library at 645-2989 for more information.
