ORGANIZATION: Gammelgarden Museum of Scandia

  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.

Volunteers look up book titles on library websites to obtain Dewey Decimal numbers. These numbers are typed into files to create labels that volunteers place on books. The books are then added to Gammelgården's non-lending resource library that the public is encouraged to use and read while at the museum. There are books for people of all ages and reading levels; and there are books in English and Swedish.
