Ms. Barbara and Ms. Erin are excited to announce that Kelsi Dew, director and curator of the Bethel Heritage Center, presented us with a generous donation from The Latham Charitable Foundation in memory of Daisy Lee Carson Latham, beloved Bethel native. The library will use the gift to continue offering quality programming for the Bethel community. We are truly thankful to the Lathams for supporting the library and its patrons.

Ms. Erin spoke at the Bethel Town Hall meeting last night about the library's growth over the past year, a Welcome Bag idea for new residents, and the need for a storage shed behind the library. If you are curious, fast forward to 28 minutes and listen for ten minutes.
