Olivedale Library raise funds for new books

The locals raise R9000 funds for new books for Olivedale Library.

The Friends of Olivedale Library (Fools) have raised funds to purchase new books through a fundraiser held on July 1.

Fools member Eleanor Woodman said, “They [librarians] need this because they do not receive the funds they should from the municipality.”
