is FUNdamental and the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund. This year our Charity Auction will benefit Reading
is FUNdamental and The Maricopa Library. We’ll be auctioning

services to fulfill the needs of local citizens for informational, historical,
cultural, educational, and leisure activities. It collects all forms of
media, including print, video, audio, and electronic resources. Maricopa Library
staff and volunteers recognizes individual needs, free and equal access to
all library materials, and adapts to changing patron and technological
needs through regular needs assessment. The Library is located off the

includes Internet access along with various CD-ROM resources. The library
