Ernie Bond Memorial Book Drive Through May 19
SALISBURY, MD---The Wicomico County Public Library again memorializes a late Salisbury University professor during the second annual Ernie Bond Community Book Drive through Saturday, May 19.
Bond, a teacher education professor was a respected faculty member on campus and a lauded international authority on children’s literature. The founder of SU’s Children’s and Young Adult Literature Festival and former chair of the Teacher Education Department, he died unexpectedly in 2016.
Through the drive, community members are asked to donate new and used children’s books for reading levels from birth through age 13 (with an emphasis on birth through age 9), or make a donation toward the purchase of volumes in English and other languages. Books collected will be donated to area schools and non-profit organizations for distribution to children in need.
Books may be dropped off at locations throughout Salisbury. Campus collection points include the Patricia R. Guerrieri Academic Common, Camden House and Dr. Ernie Bond Curriculum Resource Center in Conway Hall.
