Update: The Hellertown Area Library Development Committee is in need of volunteers to help with their Used Book Sale on Saturday, June 3. Strong individuals and athletes are needed to help move the books from an address on Constitution Avenue to the library. Volunteers are needed to help set up tents, tables and chairs in an organized fashion for the sale. Student helpers during the book sale would be appreciated as well. (Any high school student who is looking to complete volunteer hours can see the Library Development Committe members for signing of paperwork.) Sign up for available volunteer slots on the SignupGenius page for the book sale.
