Friday, May 30: Patricia Marcantonio will speak on "The Voice Behind the Words"
Our "Room With A View" is finally finished! Peruse newspapers, or just enjoy the view of the park. The fireplace was donated by Brizee Heating, Air Conditioning, & Fireplaces. Thanks so much! We're very excited about this new addition to our Library!
Also coming soon to the Library – The Young Adults' "Y-Scapes" room! It is definitely a construction zone right now, but soon the teens will have a room all to themselves. We're looking forward to it!
Spring is supposedly here, but we're still seeing plenty of winter weather! Check out our fiction display of weather related fiction. Also, be sure to grab a book from our many non-fiction displays.
