LIBRARY CONTRIBUTION - American Legion Post 65 Commander Al Butler presents a check to Saluda County Library Director Lisa Lyon to help the Saluda County Library meet mission goals by providing: 1. Equal access to technology and informational materials to all citizens of Saluda County. 2. Encouraging lifelong interest in learning and reading. 3. Working with other agencies to promote a strong community. The Library Staff can help connect its patrons with so many benefits, such as: literacy, information, technology and learning. If the library had more space they could do so much more for our community. Friends of the Library are conducting a fund raiser for expanding the building.
