Summer is a great time to read

Have you seen our selection of new books? There are a lot of new titles on our shelves for readers of all ages. Use some of your summer relaxation time to settle in with a good book.

Don't forget about Tantasqua required summer reading. We have many of the books on the list, but not all. Don't wait until the last minute to meet the reading requirements for school.

ANNUAL BOOK SALE

This year our book sale will be held on Saturday, August 22 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Come and browse our tables for a great selection of used books at great prices. Proceeds are used to fund library purchases/programs throughout the year.

The sale takes place on the grounds of the library. Come join the fun.

RAIN DATE: Saturday, August 29th.

Our sign will be back

Don't worry! Our lovely sign on the front lawn has just gone out to be refurbished. We want to keep this looking as lovely as ever. We look forward to having it back from the sign maker soon.

Trustee's Meeting

There will not be a meeting in May, instead the Board will be meeting on Thursday, April 30th. Meetings are held at 6:30 p.m. in the Library and the public is welcome to attend.

Bookmobile Visit in April

Come in and browse the new items in the Bookmobile section. A new supply of books, videos, books on CD, etc. were selected during the recent Bookmobile visit.

We'd like to thank Holland Elementary School 5th grade teacher, Mrs. Alakoski and the team of 5th graders who helped carry items to and from the Bookmobile van.
