New Books!  We still have several books back logged because we just don’t have space on the floor for them at the moment.  So if you are looking for a book please feel free to ask us and we’ll check to see if we have it in the back room.

In addition the color coding of the library collection is getting pretty close to done.  The colors used in headers for the following lists correspond to the color used for that section of the library.  It is my hope that this will make finding what you are looking for easier and help to minimize shelving errors in the future.

I would just like to thank everyone that participated in the Reading Program this year.

In the end we had 64 kids sign up and over a third of them read at least 900 minutes over the summer!

Our top reader this year was Andrew Long with a very close second by Alexa Mach.

The winner of the twenty five dollar top prize drawing was Andrew Long.

Have a nice day,
~George

Have a great weekend.

As a result of Staffing issues we will be closed evenings starting May 19th.

We will resume our regular evening hours no later that June 1st.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

~George

That time has come round once more and the Library will be denuded of help by the annual rites and rituals of moving on into the larger world.

I hope everyone has a great day!

~George
