Census 2020 Information

Census 2020 Information

We know that the past few months have been trying and it seems almost impossible to keep up with everything going on. If you have not had time to fill out the 2020 Census yet, don’t fret- the deadline for online, phone and mail-in responses has been extended until September 30th. Please remember that the census only comes around every 10 years and the data collected helps businesses, researchers and communities make crucial planning decisions. In other words, it’s kind of a ‘big deal’ and we want to make sure you’re counted!Read More Read More

FREE BOOK FRIDAY

FREE BOOK FRIDAY

As many of you know, we often have a cart of discarded ‘New’ and ‘Express’ books for sale in the vestibule for $2 each. We now have a large amount of these recently deleted books with nowhere to go. Starting this Friday, July 31st, we will be holding ‘Free Book Friday’ on the front lawn. We will gather all of the recently deleted New and Express books and place them on carts outside for you to browse through. If any title strikes your fancy, take it, it’s yours! If you’d like to leave a small donation in the donation box we set up, even better.Read More Read More
