In April 2018, Odell Public Library in Morrison, IL, and the Friends of Odell ran a successful campaign, “Building Better Readers,” to purchase materials for elementary-aged patrons.
Barb Peterson wrote a Thrivent Action Team grant, which provided seed money for a shelving unit for children’s audio books plus nine new books.
