New DeKalb library needs Friends

Stonecrest Library, the first new library built in DeKalb County in two decades, is looking for volunteers to organize and help the new facility.

Friends of Stonecrest Library, which opened last month on Klondike Road near Lithonia, will help raise funds for special programs or purchases and also help sponsor cultural and literacy events at the library.

Membership in the group is $10 for individuals annually and $20 for families.

More information: 770-482-3828.
