BATHROOM RENOVATION

 

We will begin our bathroom renovation project on April 1 and continue through May 31. We are looking forward to providing our patrons with new and updated bathrooms, as well as an additional family restroom. The family bathroom will mean that parents with young children and people with special needs will have a private bathroom. Unfortunately, bathroom usage will be extremely limited during the renovations. Therefore, we ask that patrons plan accordingly. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the dust or noise.

HELP US TO REACH OUR GOAL OF 50,000 CHECKOUTS IN 2019!

Throughout the year, we will highlight different portions of our collection to inspire our patrons to check out what we have to offer.

In honor of Dr. Seuss, we will start with our collection for our youngest readers and their families. Our collection is split into three categories. We have picture books for our youngest readers, early readers for children who are starting to read, and chapter books for more experienced readers. If you need some suggestions, Ms. Debbie and Ms. Judy would be happy to help you with your selections.

All items in the library count to our goal. The list includes books, audio books, DVD’s, TV series, children’s books, backpacks, and even ebooks form OverDrive.
