In 2021, the Reading Tree collected more than $12,000 that then became more than 665 books that were added to the Citrus Libraries collection. This year the Reading Tree is back and has a goal of once again of collecting 500 new books for the library.

For Love Your Library 2021, we held a month long celebration of our Libraries, books, and reading. We created the Reading Tree as a visual representation of our collection as it “grows” daily. We had a goal of the cost of 500 books donated throughout the month of February.  Because of our generous community, we were able to exceed that goal and add 663 books!
