The five books for children presented this year have a memory label inside the front cover to honour a member who passed away during 2020.
Stawell U3a president Gabrielle Chamberlin said the group intended to continue to purchase a book and present the books to the Stawell Library, to honour long-time members on their passing, at the same time hoping to keep such purchases to a minimum.
"Like many senior community groups our long-time members of U3A Stawell are passing away," she said.
"The passing of members will always leave a void, we at U3A Stawell, wanted to acknowledge our members, many who have maintained their membership and interest in the sharing of knowledge for three decades.
