Lending library continues to grow


MONROE — 
When it opened in 2005, the Monroe Lending Library attracted only 75 members to its 1,300-volume collection housed in a trailer behind Monroe Elementary School.
But the library, which only opened a total of six hours a week, began to grow through the work of volunteers.
Today, the Monroe Lending Library houses more than 15,000 works for its 2,210 members. It also has a permanent location at 6 East Ave. and is now open 48 hours each week.
