This May, students from the Friends Seminary in Union Square are helping a resident of JASA’s Cooper Square Senior Housing Building revitalize the Cooper Square library. Phyllis Banek, an avid reader, wants all the residents of the building to be able to use the library as a place to find interesting books, relax and read. The Friends Seminary students are helping with the initial task of dusting and cleaning books and shelves and are also helping Phyllis alphabetize and categorize the hundreds of books into an organized and user-friendly system. Phyllis hopes that with the help of the students and other volunteers, the library organization and clean up will be finished by the end of the summer so the residents can look forward to a warm fall and winter, cozied up with lots of books!
