The library's fiscal year closes in just a few days (June 30) and there is still time to make a much-needed donation to the
Friends of the Library campaign. We are currently $9,700 behind our goal. The library uses these funds to stock the shelves with the materials that you borrow every day such as large print books, best sellers, feature film, foreign, and TV series DVDs, as well as downloadable books, magazines and music that you can take on your personal devices wherever you are going this summer.
Please help us with this last push. .

If you already have OneClickdigital and/or Zinio accounts, you can use the same log-in information to access RBdigital.
