From January through December 2011, 119 individuals gave 10,000 hours of their time at the Idaho Commission for Libraries (ICfL)! This year we recognized their dedication and commitment during Volunteer Appreciation Week, April 15-21, with a tour of the State Historical Society, goodies supplied by staff throughout the week at the "Volunteer Café," a photo poster, and a  photo slide show. In June we also had "Volunteer Lunch on the Lawn" and were treated with perfect weather for celebrating the 2011 volunteers and their many accomplishments, including the following:

• 70 recording production volunteers:  4,800 hours
• 33 Support volunteers:  3,200 hours
• 16 Telephone Pioneers:  1,200 hours
• 5 groups from schools, counties, and organizations:  800 hours
