Another great service from our local library!

Did you know you can borrow a mobile hotspot for two weeks from the Library? The patrons that have checked them out have loved them! Call or email us for more information or place a hold on one from the catalog (search for mobile hotspot). 🤓😍

As many of you know already, our long time library director Dan Johnson is retiring. To honor his many years of service to our library, we are putting together a memory book. Please join us by sending a selfie or photo (you can even be holding a favorite book or a card to wish him well!).

Please send these to our chair Amy Hyde by 2/10. Her email address is [email protected]

Looking forward to seeing all your contributions and once again wanted to thank Dan for his years of service, including my last seven plus years as a member of our library's board.

Volunteer-run libraries don’t meet national standards. We don’t even know how many books are issued

I think we are not fully ready for the full replacement of paper, which has benefits not currently available in digital technology. It allows us to focus on learning and not be distracted by technology. As an IT professional with an appreciation of philosophy, I find the corporate driven push for electronic learning to be troubling without the appropriate ethical guidelines.

What does the push for digital classrooms mean for that oldest and simplest of touch screens: a plain old sheet of paper?

Great Globe article from 2015.

Opening up resources enables the culture of libraries to be knit into the online network where our culture has taken up residence.
