Not sure what to write?
“I am thankful for my library because…” or “The library helped me get a new job by…” are great ways to start.
Reflect on personal experiences. Have you learned something new or overcome a challenge in your life? Has the library made a positive impact in your neighborhood or town. Even one sentence makes a difference!
