Congratulations to the Friends of the Haverford Township Free Library

Annually, the Delaware County Library System and member libraries support the Legislative Breakfast which honors an Outstanding Public Official, Outstanding Library Employee, and Outstanding Citizen for Libraries.  Today, the Friends of the Haverford Township Free Library were awarded the 2013 Phyllis S. Larson Award for Outstanding Citizen for Libraries, held at the Delaware County Law Library at the Courthouse in Media.  The award, named in honor of Ms. Larson, a volunteer who was instrumental in the beginning of the Delaware County Library  System, is given to a citizen or group that embodies the volunteer spirit for libraries.
