The Shadow Catcher

by Marianne Wiggins

Monday, July 26 at 10:00 am

Thayne Branch Library
“An unusual fictionalization ofthe life of American West
photographer Edward Curtis (1868-1952)–along with that of
a woman named “MarianneWiggins.” Curtis emerges as a
fascinating, complex figure, onewho inhabited any number of American contradictions. With Marianne’s crackling social commentary and deceptively breezy self-discovery, Wiggins’s eighth novel is a heartfelt de force Weekly tour.”—

Claiming Ground

By: Laura Bell

After college, a Kentucky girl spends a summer in Wyoming to find herself and regroup. Thirty years later, she’s still there. In this memoir, Bell vividly depicts her life out West, starting with her first job herding sheep—an occupation usually done by men. She goes on to write about her life as a ranch hand, masseuse, housewife, stepmother, and forest ranger, mixing work experiences with touching and poignant accounts of family and friends. She also describes the Wyoming landscape in brilliant detail, revealing her love for the place.

Summer Fundraising a Success!

The LCLF Endowment Fund received almost $15,000 in donations as a result of the fundraising letter that went out in June.  Thank you!  Total donations to date are $50,741 and matching dollars received from the state are $94,958.     Updated 08/30/10 

Lincoln County libraries are busier than ever helping families survive during these tough economic times–providing help with job applications, teaching 21st century skills, and nurturing the love of reading in kids that will serve them the rest of their lives.  At the same time, the libraries are facing reduced revenue and increased costs.  These are precisely the times when earnings from an Endowment Fund could have a significant impact.

The Lincoln County Library Foundation continues to ask for your support of the Endowment Fund.  County libraries are eligible to receive 2 to1 matching funds from the state on donations up to $213,043.  

What could annual earnings (estimated at 5%) from a $700,000 endowment provide? 

• 600 bestsellers and 10 public access computers;
• 1,200 children’s books and 240 books on CD;
• interlibrary loan costs and supplies for children’s programs for one year; or
• 100% of the libraries’ newspaper and magazine subscriptions for one year and 1,000 young adult books.

Your tax deductible donation will make a big difference in helping us reach our endowment goal and insuring that the library services you need are available.  To donate online, click on “Foundation” at the top of the page and scroll down to the “donate” button, or mail your check to Lincoln County Library Foundation, 519 Emerald Street, Kemmerer, WY 83101. 

Thank you for your support!

all proceeds will

go to the

Library Endowment

Foundation

Wednesday April 14th to Saturday April 17th

During regular Library Hours

The Wyoming State Legislature set aside $12.1 million in matching funds to encourage establishment and growth of library endowments.  Lincoln County libraries are eligible to receive a 2:1 match on donations up to $213,043.  Every dollar donated, up to that amount, will be matched by the state with an additional two dollars.

For example, if you spend $5.00 at the book sale, it will be matched by $10.00 from the state for a total of $15.00 added to the endowment.

When libraries statewide have raised $2.3 million cumulatively, each of the state’s 23 county library systems will receive an additional $100,000.  At the end of the fundraising period, June 30, 2013, Lincoln County libraries could have an endowment of over $700,000.
