Borders and Fountaindale Library Are Partners in Crime… Print E-mail

…and Romance, and Mystery, and Children’s, and much more!  Whether you’re looking for that perfect escapist romance as you sun by the pool, want to bury yourself in the latest bestseller, or are looking for ways to keep your kids’ reading levels up during the summer, if you shop at Borders on July 30-31, 2010, you can help your local library, as well.  The more you shop, the more you help!

Bring a voucher to Borders at 161 N. Weber Rd. in Bolingbrook during its Benefit Fountaindale Public Library Days, and at least 10% of any purchase you make at the store will be donated to the library.  The more that is purchased during this fundraising event, the higher the percentage of those sales will go to the library.  Online purchases at Borders.com during the Benefit Days count towards total sales, as well.

Vouchers are available at the library, or you can download it right here. Fountaindale Public Library will use the donated funds to purchase books for its expanded collection in the new library building.  For more information, please call 630-759-2102.
