The Library will be closed on Friday, May 2 for a staff in-service day. We will re-open on Saturday, May 3 at 10:00 am
The Library Staff and Board of Trustees extent a HUGE THANK YOU to our Library Volunteers. Thanks to the many hours of service you provide we are able to be a better place in the community. You all truly "Inspire" us all to be better people, serve one another and share new ideas and information. This one week out of the whole year we will strive to make you feel even more appreciated than you are on a daily basis.
Did you know the Library has 3 rooms that can be used by members of the community for meetings or study? You can request a reservation by going to the Room Reservation page on our website.
The Suburban Life published a nice article about our Read to the Dogs program recently. It even includes some video. You can find it here.

TumbleBooks are animated; talking picture books
that teach kids the joy of reading in a format they'll love. TumbleBooks are
created by taking existing picture books, adding animation, sound, music and
narration to produce an electronic picture book that you can read, or have read
to you. You can find TumbleBooks here.
