From the director,
Thank you to Steve Shelley, Superintendent of Public Works, and his department for bringing the library’s supplies of boxes of books, tables and chairs for Sunday’s Street Fair. We could not have done it without their help!
If you’ve borrowed a museum pass, we ask that it be returned to the library by 10 a.m. on the due date to ensure timely pick up for the next patron on the waiting list. If you wish to return the pass prior to the due date and the library is closed, please put in the book drop. We appreciate your cooperation.
The library is distributing Covid-19 self-test kits while supplies last.
