Council To Vote On Naming Story Time Room

Lynchburg, VA- Lynchburg City Council will vote Tuesday night on the naming of the Lynchburg Public Library's new story time room.

The plan is to name it the "Lynn Dodge Story Time Room" after Lynn Dodge who spent close to 40 years working at the Lynchburg Public Library.

In her retirement, she gave a donation of more than a hundred thousand dollars for the new room.

Other donors include St. John's Episcopal Church, Friends of the Library, Liberty University and the Greater Lynchburg Community Trust.

Dodge says it's a community wide effort.

"I'm glad I was able to help because it's just a true honor because I just believe so much in the power of reading, and the power of succeeding in life because you can read comfortably," said Dodge.

Construction for the new addition should be complete by the end of the year.
