TWO MORE DVDS



Two more recent releases have been added to The Green Free Library's growing DVD collection. While most of our DVD's come from patron donations, we are lucky enough to be included in a special rental plan via the Potter-Tioga Library System. This allows us to provide a few of the current DVD's that are released every month. We still appreciate donations of new or gently used DVD's (with original case-Please!).
Many of these donations are added for circulation; others go in the Friend's of The Green Free Library booksale that is held every year in June.
