The Friends of the Library reordered their cookbook “Favorite Recipes.” Originally published in 2002 the book is full of recipes of many of Niobrara County’s finest. The cookbook is $10.00 and proceeds also benefit the Endowment Fund. As you know, meeting the Kresge Challenge was just the first step in the endowment’s long-term goal of 1.5 million. Copies are available at the library.
