During the winter months the library is a warm, welcoming space for one and all. Library staff are especially aware that wintertime presents special challenges for elders and others in our community. We know that snowy roads and icy walkways can prevent folks from making their way to the library. If you are homebound, let us bring the library to you! Call (457-2295) or send an email (amanda@normanwilliams.org) to request a home delivery. We will bring you books, magazines, or audio books.
If you'd like to learn how to download e-books to read or listen to online please call 457-2295 or email circulation@normanwilliams.org

WHAT'S ON YOUR NIGHTSTAND?
January 2019 Picks
"What's On Your Nightstand?" is not your usual book club. We chat about the books you are reading, the books you've loved, and the books you've always wanted to read. Below are last month's recommendations; click on each cover to read Goodreads reviews. If anything intrigues you, stop by the library and ask the staff to help you find these books!
Our next meeting will take place on Tuesday, Feb. 12 at 10:15am in the Reading Room (in front of a warm fireplace with yummy treats!). All are welcome!
