Got Pokémon Cards? The Farmington Library Wants Them
The Farmington Library is looking for folks to donate Pokémon cards as part of future plans to offer Pokémon programs for local youths.
FARMINGTON, CT — Farmington Libraries is clear that, while they are seeking Pokémon card donations, they don't want mom to unload their children's collection.
Still, the library is cooking up some yet-to-be-announced Pokémon program, and part of that is an inventory of Pokémon cards, those treasured cardboard creations featuring cute "monsters" beloved worldwide and, especially, in Japan.
"The Farmington Library is looking for your old Pokémon cards," wrote Farmington Libraries this week.
