We are running out of room for books.We have no space left to put children’s non-fiction or new middle school fiction .
We stopped buying new books for these areas until we can come up with a solution. But whatever we do – it will be only a temporary solution.
![Page 25: Cranbury Public Library and Cranbury LIbrary Foundation Annual Reports](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062418/556203ebd8b42ae04e8b5895/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
