The Vermont Library Association is pleased to offer a 2012 wall calendar featuring one glorious Vermont library per county for a total of fourteen months. You can spend a beautiful year getting to know Vermont’s public libraries and help support them. Each month provides a window into the history and personality of each library with great pictures, interesting stories and bits of statistics. The 12 x 22 inch format affords plenty of space for writing appointments and includes all major holidays and moon phases. Best of all profits from the sale of each calendar stays with the libraries to support their services. This calendar will make gifts during the great holiday season! The pre-order deadline is September 8, for delivery at the end of October. Contact your local library to pre-order or determine whether they will have stock available for sale in November.

The Vermont Calendar Project was created by Williston residents to benefit public libraries throughout Vermont. It is the brain-child of Marcy Kass, graphic designer and Trustee of the Dorothy Alling Memorial Library. The team includes Andy Duback-photographer, Kathy Bielawa Stamper – writer and Marti Fiske- Director of the Dorothy Alling Memorial Library and Immediate Past-President of the Vermont Library Association. Seed funds were loaned by the Friends of the Dorothy Alling Memorial Library. Libraries across Vermont will be offering these calendars for sale and will keep all of the profits after production costs.
Libraries featured in the calendar: Lincoln, Mark Skinner (Manchester), St. Johnsbury Athanaeum, Brownell (Essex Junction), Alice M. Ward Memorial (Canaan), Fairfax Community, Grand Isle Free, Lanpher Memorial (Hyde Park), Peabody (Post Mills), Craftsbury Public, Rutland Free, Aldrich Public (Barre), South Londonderry Free and Rochester Public.
