AED donated to Library

DAYTON–The Friends of the Dayton Memorial Library (FOL) group is pleased to announce the purchase of an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) which is now installed at the library. This purchase was funded in part by a donation received by the FOL from Broughton Land Company, along with proceeds from recent FOL book sales. The AED unit is installed in the Delany Room to ensure availability to all building users, even when the library is closed.

The Library AED is the latest unit to be placed within the community; others are located primarily in county and school buildings. These units are fully automated and can be effectively used by anyone prior to the arrival of emergency responders, by following the audio instructions provided by the machine.
