Check out a classic story or hit shuffle and try something new. Find harmony at your library’s book clubs, movie nights, crafting classes, and author talks. A headphone kind of day?

No matter what rhythm you find yourself in, there’s a seat in the front row at the library for you.

This September, B sharp, and sign up for a library card during Library Card Sign Up Month! Visit the Voorheesville Public Library, located at 51 School Road. Our librarians can help you sign up with a library card! Voorpl.org
