The Library Board of Trustees recently updated the Library’s Mission Statement. You might want to take a look. This update is part of the Board’s ongoing work to systematically review all of the policies and statements that underpin the Library’s operations. Some of these, for example the Internet Policy, were outdated and needed to be substantially rewritten. Others, not so much. It should be noted that in the midst of this process, New York passed a law mandating the work: a process the Board had already begun.Read More Read More

We will have a class on the new system on the morning of May 17 and again on the night of the 23rd. The librarians are busy familiarizing themselves with a preview version, so they can better answer your questions.Read More Read More
