Used Book Sale

Family Summer Reading Program Begins Soon

Registration for this year’s program “Be Creative @ Your Library” begins June 9.  Aspects of creativity in art, drama, and music will be featured in our weekly programs.  Open to all ages (child to adult), the program rewards time spent reading with weekly and grand prizes.  Program activities will begin June 17. For more information, click on the Family Summer Reading link.

 

Changes at the Library

The library has some new shelving in the adult fiction area and CD and DVD areas. The staff and volunteers are busy rearranging these areas of the library, hoping to improve the display of highly used items.  Making items easier to see, find and check out is just another way of improving service at the library.
