\leftline{\bf PROJECT DESCRIPTION}
\vskip 1 pc
\leftline{\sl Describe the project you plan to do.}
\medskip
{
I plan to collect books for a local library. I will accept both donations
of books and money towards the purchase of new books. I hope to promote
this project through the distribution of flyers, announcements made at
places like Trinity Baptist Church, advertisements in local
publications, and the word-of-mouth of interested Scouts, whose parents and
friends can make donations. Additionally, I plan to build a web site for
this project, which will contain all the project's important
information. Through the web site, people will be able to access the
most up-to-date information and will have a convenient way to contact me
with questions or donations.

One of the important goals of this project is to collect books related
to computers and technology, these being personal interests of mine. I
hope to make the benefitting library's technology section both current
and complete. Because of the changing nature of technology, many of these
books will have to be purchased new. This will be done with money
collected from donations and from fundraisers.

If the library wishes, Boy Scouts could be recruited to label, sort, and
repair the books collected.

\medskip
The library is something that benefits the community. Therefore,
anything that benefits the library benefits the community. I was
inspired to do this project after visiting the library to find some
information, and being unable to find what I sought. I think that a
more complete library would be better able to serve the needs of people
seeking knowledge.

\leftline{\bf PROJECT DETAILS}
\vskip 1pc
{
\sl
\noindent
Plan your work by describing the present condition, the method, materials to be used, project helpers, and a time schedule for carrying out the project. Describe any safety hazards you might face, and explain how you will ensure the safety of those carrying out the project.

\noindent
If appropriate, include photographs of the area before you begin your project. Providing before-and-after photographs of your project area can give a clear example of your effort.
\medskip
}
\leftline{\bf The Present Condition:}
\smallskip
To describe the present condition of the library's technology section, I
simply counted books using the library's indexing system. I can evaluate
my project's success simply by comparing this number to the number of
books my project provides.
\smallskip
There are approximately three shelves of books of the type I want to
collect. These are found in sections 004--006. According to the
library's computer records:
\medskip
\halign{
\hfil # & \quad \hfil # \cr
Number of books in section 004: & 354 \cr
Number of books in section 005: & 450 \cr
Number of books in section 006: & 48  \cr
Total: & 852 \cr
}
\medskip
Of these books, 655 were published since 1994. Also, there are about 30
books on computer repair, in section 621.
\medskip
\leftline{\bf The Method:}
\smallskip
First of all, I will accept books and monetary donations
personally, through flyers and the project's web site. Information
regarding the project will be distributed by me, interested Scouts, and
announcements at Queen of Peace Catholic Church and the pancake
breakfast fundraiser, described below.

In order to demonstrate my leadership ability, I will coordinate and
hold a pancake breakfast, with the assistance of Troop 171.
The proceeds from this fundraiser will be used to purchase new
books for the library.

In total, I hope to collect at least 250 books, at least 50 of which
relate to technology and are sufficiently recent, and \$200 in donations.
\medskip
\leftline{\bf Materials to be Used:}
\smallskip
To collect donations and transport materials, I will use my personal
vehicle.

For the fundraiser, Troop 171 has offered to donate the stoves and the
facility will most likely be Trinity Baptist Church. Disposable plates,
silverware, etc., will be donated by my family.

\medskip
\leftline{\bf Project Helpers:}
\smallskip
I will be assisted by Boy Scout volunteers from Troop 171. They will
provide most of the labor for the pancake breakfast and will be
responsible for much of the flyers' distribution.

Adults from the Troop will cook the food.

\leftline{\bf CARRYING OUT THE PROJECT}
\vskip 1pc
{
\sl
\noindent
Record the progress of your project. Keep a record of how much time you spend planning and carrying out the project. List who besides yourself worked on the project, the days they worked, the number of hours they worked each day, and the total length of time others assisted on the project.

\noindent
If appropriate, list the type and cost of any materials required to complete the project. If your original project plan changes at any time, be sure and document what the change was and the reason for the change.

\medskip
\noindent
Hours I Spent Working on the Project

\medskip
\noindent
The length of time spent should be as adequate as is necessary for you to demonstrate your leadership of two or more individuals in planning and carrying out your project.

My total costs were \$66.33. My total income was \$340.10, creating a

\medskip
\leftline{\sl Changes}
\medskip
\noindent {\sl List any changes made to the original project plan and explain why those changes were made.}
\medskip
There were no announcements made in publications, for a lack of funds
and time. For the Spanish mass at Queen of Peace, I produced a Spanish
translation of the main flyer. The library preferred to sort and catalog
the books for itself, so no Scouts participated in this.

The pancake breakfast was held September 2nd. The books were donated the
following Friday, September 8th, to work with the library's schedule.
\medskip
\leftline{\sl Summary}
\medskip
I consider my project a success. I exceeded my goals with only the few
changes in plan noted above. If I had this project to do over, however,
I would have done a few things differently. I would have advertised the
breakfast better. Far fewer people showed up than I expected, but they
were more generous than I expected, too. I would have sought more
corporate donations. While I was able to keep costs fairly low, I might
have been able to cover all my expenses without using donations had I
visited a few more stores.

I am especially grateful to the members of Troop 171 who provided so
much assistance, my Eagle advisors David Ernst and Chris Easton, and the
staff of the Aurora Public Library, especially Program Librarian Barbara
Schneller.
