Drop Your Drawers at the Library!

Make your next visit to the Library a brief one, for a good cause, as part of Pendleton County Public Library’s Drop Your Drawers campaign.

Drop off packages of new underwear and socks for boys and girls, preferably sizes 4-16, from November 1 – December 30, at the Library. Donations will help replenish Pendleton County schools’ supplies of emergency underpants and socks, and provide direct assistance to each school’s Family Resource Centers.

The need is great. Schools are handing out 10 pairs a month to children who need clean underwear and socks due to accidents at school or issues at home. Because parents often are unable to bring fresh underwear or socks to their children during school hours, children can miss valuable learning time in the classroom.

The Library’s goal is to receive 500 pairs. Underwear and socks will be distributed evenly to schools in Pendleton County. The schools are: Northern Elementary, Southern Elementary, Phillip Sharp Middle School, and Pendleton County Public High School.

The Drop Your Drawers campaign is easily recognizable by the popular character of Captain Underpants by author and illustrator Dav Pilkey.

The library’s collection of Captain Underpants’ children’s books will be on display with our Toilet Monster during the Drop Your Drawers campaign.  By all means, stay awhile and enjoy the library’s many services. (The Library doesn’t really want you to make your visit brief!)

Underwear and/or socks may be dropped off at Pendleton County Public Library at 801 Robbins Avenue in Falmouth.

New Outreach Vehicle

PCPL is proud to announce that they are recipients of the ARPA Mobile Library Grant.  This grant was made possible through funding by the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), the Kentucky Department for Libraries and Archives, the Institute of Museum and Library Services, and the Library Services and Technology Act.

This grant provides the funding for our new Outreach Vehicle.  This vehicle will be used to make the Library more accessible to the residents of Pendleton County who find it difficult or impossible to travel to the Library.  This will be accomplished through our Porch Delivery Service by delivering and picking up patron items at their homes.

 

This program is supported by the Institute of Museum and Library Services, a federal agency, through the Library Service and Technology Act as administered by the Kentucky Department of Libraries and Archives.
