Bridgerland Literacy is conducting their annual Have a Novel Christmas book drive. This annual drive spreads the gift of reading throughout Cache Valley by collecting books from the community and redistributing them to local families in need of support. To donate simply drop off new and like-new books before December 12. Drop boxes are available at the Logan Library, all other public libraries in Cache Valley, and several local schools and businesses. For more information, contact Bridgerland Literacy at 716-9141.

With the 2008 General Election less than six weeks away, The Logan Library has compiled a 2008 Election Guide. This guide is designed to help local voters understand voting procedures and make informed voting decisions. It contains links to:

• Official County and State websites with information for voters about registering, voting times and places, and sample ballots.
• Non-partisan sites with information about candidates and issues.
• Official candidate websites.

We will update the election guide as more information becomes available.

The Bear River Health Department recently reported finding mosquitos infected with the West Nile virus in Cache County. We have compiled these websites with useful information to help you learn more about the West Nile virus and what you can do to prevent infection.
