Sad Goodbyes
In Memoriam:
Richard "Cut" Cutting, July 13, 2020. Richard was active in many of Warner's organizations, and a long time employee of the Merrimack County Telephone Company. His family suggests Memorial gifts be made to the
New Hampshire Telephone Museum, of which he was a Board member for years.
The New Hampshire Telephone Museum has regretfully cancelled their monthly events that had been organized for this season. Some publicity was unable to be cancelled, and they apologize for any confusion this has caused.

Tech Tips: Carts & Deferred holds
|
Using Carts.
When logged into our catalog,
you can place items you may want to consider into a cart. Then check off the boxes next to the ones you want now, and place a "hold" on the batch so staff will see them. You can also email the cart to yourself or to a friend!
Warning!
Carts empty themselves after a while.
|
|
Suspending holds
For titles you want to defer to a later date, you can place a hold and then "suspend" it until a set date of your choice. When the set date arrives, you will be notified as soon as it is available.
Unsure when you will be ready? Suspend the hold with no set date and return to edit it later.
