Hi Everyone!
Last Thursday we added our 2000th member! Since we started in 1999, we have always had cancellations that trailed additions from time to time. For the first time the additions are ahead of the cancellations which got us past the 2000 mark. In fact, over the weekend we had 2 new members to get us to 2002! And our viewership is up too! May God continue to bless the Church Librarians Network!
