Thanks to events like Lansdale Beer Fest and Lansdale Trivia Night, Lansdale Public Library has surpassed its 2012 budgeted fundraising goal of $33,000.

The Reporter’s Dan Sokil attended and reported on the Lansdale Library Committee meeting Monday night, where director Tom Meyer told the committee fundraising has reached 107 percent for the year — $35,554.
