Athertononians! Share your surplus LIBRARY WEALTH with neighboring communities like East Palo Alto and unincorporated. It will make you richer in the end if your future teachers, workforce and community members have better library resources. Remember, your wealth comes from other communities, so why not give back? And what can go farther than LIBRARY WEALTH in the form of books, movies, free education, literacy and enrichment services? You can't spend it all yourselves, so why not share PART of your EXCESS LIBRARY WEALTH?.
