Meet and greet – On Thursday, March 31st from 5-6 pm, come and meet Amy Williams, our new librarian, and thank Christine Tate for all she has done for the library and wish her well in her new endeavor. An Evening with the Burke Family will follow, beginning at 6:30 PM.

We have lots of new books!  A special thanks to all who contributed to our annual appeal which enabled us to update our non-fiction collection!

Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy. I have no cover, so read me maybe?

Pick any book.

Check it out.

Take it home.

Unwrap the love!

Sure, it might turn out to be a dud, or it could be the diamond in the rough you wouldn’t have given a chance otherwise. There’s no knowing until you check it out!
