    We have an immediate need for a place to unload 24 pallets - think of a full 40' truck and store books until this week's rain stops.

    Shipping company requires a loading dock, a fork lift, a fork lift driver, room inside to secure 24 pallets (8'x40' or 320 sq. ft.) of boxed books. Must be unloaded in less than 2 hours. Truck has been released for shipment and we are expecting 4-5 days of rain.

    The library has no loading dock, no fork lift, and no door wide enough for a fork lift.

    Secondary need:

    When the rain stops, we will need volunteers and trucks to move book boxes between the unloading point and the library.

    Wal-Mart and Lowes said no. Print company, TCG Legacy, has a loading dock and fork lift, but doesn't have the space to unload the pallets or keep them until we can move them out on a dry day.

    Because time is so short, please call:
    Monday and Tuesday - 772-2082
    Wednesday and Thursday - 661-6565
    Friday - 772-2082
    Saturday 661-6565

    Unfortunately it could be here as early as Tuesday or Wednesday afternoon.

    We currently have storage space for the books on our property.
