<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Library Community,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The recent wildfires have devastated areas and communities across the state. Many of you have been personally impacted, and our hearts go out to you as you grieve your losses and move through the recovery process. With the significant and
widespread damage, it’s remarkable that to date most library buildings and collections have escaped extensive damage. We are saddened to hear that the Blue River Volunteer Library was destroyed by fire and we are aware that many libraries had to close due
to evacuation orders or hazardous air quality. As you begin to assess any damage to your library, we wanted to share some resources that may be helpful:<o:p></o:p></p>
