The Friends of the Osterhout, despite being unable to hold their week-long book sale in June, under the tent next to the library on South Franklin Street, creatively cobbled together several smaller fundraising events, such as Mystery Bundle Drive-through Sales, a Sidewalk Book Sale, re-opening their book shop on the third floor of the main library and miscellaneous book sales, to present a check for $12,000 to Richard Miller, executive director of the Osterhout Library. Funds raised by the Friends typically are used to purchase items on a wish list, goods and services not ordinarily covered in the standard operating budget. Due to current circumstances, the $12,000 will be disbursed at the discretion of the executive director.

Miller, executive director and system administrator, Osterhout Free Library and Luzerne County Library System.
