Meet Samantha - our latest Kid Librarian! Samantha is nine years old and a third grader who loves to read. She often reads after school and likes fantasy and adventure books. She has a pet tortoise!
If your 8-to-12-year-old loves to read, we are taking "job applications" for Kid Librarian! The chosen children will get to pick a theme (or their favorite books) to make a fun book display in the children's room. All books must be from the Juvenile Fiction or Juvenile Non-fiction collections.
Bring your readers in to check out Samantha's display and apply to do their own. If you have already applied please be patient as we have had lots of interest

Do you have something in your attic that is worth a fortune, maybe something that has passed through the generations but just collects dust? Let's find out!

Please join us on Saturday June 6th at the Community Center as we welcome appraiser and historian Dan Meader for an Antiques Road Show-style event. Last month, two duck decoys carved in Massachusetts shattered auction records when they sold for a million dollars each!

We have tried to anticipate your questions but please call the library for more information.
We hope to see a good crowd with lots of interesting stuff!

Meet Mia - our latest Kid Librarian! Mia is nine years old and a fourth grader who loves horses and reading! It's no surprise some of her favorite books are about horses including the classic Misty of Chincoteague.
Mia's theme display also includes dogs. She likes to read to her dog Jax!
