Membership News

The Numbers

Our membership, defined as the number of addresses to which the newsletter is sent, currently tops 400. The actual number of people who see each issue is probably almost twice that.

Among our membership, we have 16 Business or School partners, whose ads appear in the print issue as well as in this on-line version. (Be sure to take a look at them below.)

We also have 91 Life Members and 23 Sustaining Members (see below for the listing). The librarians are making good progress in choosing books to honor these members. This year I will not wait until all the 114 books have arrived to send letters notifying you of which book has your plate in it. I'll send the letters as I receive the titles from the librarians. The first batch will go out in the next few weeks. 

New Members

The Walnut Acres Neighborhood Association just joined our Business Friends. Please welcome our new partner by checking what W.A.N.A. has to offer.

We also extend a warm welcome to the following, who joined after the last newsletter was published:

Gloria Burney

Shirley Wu

And welcome back to Victoria Ozuma who rejoined after a hiatus.

Ruth Bromund, Membership VP


Be a Friend!

Memberships in the Friends of the Platt Library are win-win relationships. Besides providing additional funding for our library, they also give opportunities for new friendships, socializing, and volunteering—as well as community recognition for your support of a worthy cause. If that's not enough incentive, you also get a printed copy of this newsletter in the mail…what an excellent investment!

To become a member, give a membership as a gift, or renew your existing membership, just fill out the form below and click the ‘PRINT’ button. Write a check payable to Friends of the Platt Library and send it along with the printed form to:

Friends of the Platt Library
23600 Victory Boulevard
Woodland Hills, CA 91367

...or bring them to the library in person. Thank you!

“Thank you for your continued support” doesn't begin to express our deep appreciation for the moral, financial, and (in so many cases) hands-on assistance these individuals have lavished on Platt Library and Friends of The Platt Library over the years.
