The Census is used to determine each State’s representation in Congress for the next ten years. It also determines our share of State and Local Sales Tax.

Our Children’s librarians have been working hard to restore your programs from their homes. Maintenance staff took time from cleaning the Library to collect and to mail books to Linnea’s home. Once she got them, she started two weekly story times which are streamed live on the Library’s Facebook page. Tuesdays at 10am is Toddler Story Time. The first Family Bedtime Story is this Thursday at 7pm.  Please note that copyright restrictions require us to remove Linnea’s book reading shortly after they are done. Activity of the Week with Rebecca and Gordon will have no such restrictions, however.Read More Read More

As I retire from the Library Board, I wish to express what an honor and pleasure it has been to serve on this Board for the past eleven years.  As Chair, I followed in the footsteps of some wonderful and remarkable people – Miriam Curnin, Bill Dentzer and Joan Faulkner – all of whom worked hard to maintain and improve this Library; now I am delighted to pass the baton to Lauren Gottfried.

We want to thank everyone who showed up for yesterday’s eclipse. As you may have guessed, we totally (not partially) underestimated the number of people who would come. It was only your good cheer and generous spirit that made the event as successful as it was. Just be aware that top Library brass is already gathering in a desperate caffeine-fueled huddle to plan for the next eclipse.Read More Read More
