The Elgin Library Board has come to an agreement with Roger and  Becky Watson for the purchase of the Dollars and Cents building.  The transaction will not be official until November 15th when the papers are signed.  The Library Board is still looking for $10,000 to be raised that will allow remodeling to be done for handicap accessibility and paying the utilities.  The Board hopes to have the remodeling done and the library up and running by Spring of 2010.  If you can help by donating time or money it would be greatly appreciated.  If you are willing to dontate your time please talk to one of the board members: Ruth Boyer, Glenda Klein, MaryWillnow, Gloria Vaaler, Deb Michels, or Gwen Hoffman.  Or monetary donations can be sent to: Elgin Library, P.O. Box 426, Elgin, ND 58533.

The Board plans for the library to include several computers and printers for everyone to use, technology classes, a room for arts and crafts for children and adults, a center for the senior citizens to play card, visit or host events, a special location for children and adults to read and a display of our local artists and historical artifacts.
