The library is now closed on Saturdays.
We've just not had enough Saturday visitors to warrant being open, especially since we are a very thin staff of volunteers. We regret this but it is necessary.
Our library schedule is now Tuesdays & Thursdays 10-5:30.
Thanks for your understanding.

Today is National Little Free Library Day.
Just like your community library little free libraries exist to build community, inspire readers of all ages and to make books conveniently available. Anyone can put up a little free library box at their home, place of business or with permission in public places. Little Free Libraries can be found at more than 200,000 locations around the globe. Inspiration & info - https://littlefreelibrary.org/about/
Locally there are several library boxes for passersby to take a free book and leave a free book to share with others. Here's a map that shows registered book boxes, https://littlefreelibrary.org/map/
