For the second year Dieruff students and Dieruff librarian, Diane Hollowell, took part in the labeling of 22,000 books to be distributed to the elementary students in Allentown School District and surrounding districts.
The books were supplied by Cops’n’Kids and PPL. Dieruff students spent five hours inserting ”This book belongs to” labels inside the front cover.
Student comments:
Alex Edmonton: “It was amazing to know that these books will be going to kids who don’t have any.”
Yacinia Agosto: “It felt great to be part of something that will help instill the joy of reading to our elementary students.”
