Thanks to our past and future Corporate Sponsors!

The Joint Building Committee (JBC) is a group consisting of board members of the Wood Memorial Library Association, and staff and board members of the Friends of Wood Memorial Library and Museum.  We meet regularly to identify and address issues of maintenance and improvement to our beautiful building and the grounds. But we don’t do it alone! Heartfelt thanks go out to the growing number of individuals and companies who contribute in “hidden” ways — to the many wonderful people who work behind the scenes to make the Wood the place we all know and love.
