Services Update
Library Resources & Virtual Programs
11/1-11/7
Welcome back!

Thank you to our patrons and community for continuing to support a safe and pleasant environment while visiting us! We look forward to continuing to serve you both inside the Library and via curbside services, and we thank you for your patience as we work to gradually reintroduce our services in a safe and responsible manner.

Although we are thrilled to have our members back in the building, remember that we are enforcing new "Pop In & Pick Up" procedures to safeguard the health of our community. All items will continue to be quarantined for at least 72 hours upon return, and overdue fines will continue to be waived until further notice.
Outdoor Seating

As the weather turns inclement and creates poor conditions for outdoor services, the time has come to say goodbye to our outdoor seating areas.

All permanent furniture will remain available for your use, but our umbrellas, canopies, tables, and chairs have been brought indoors for the season. Thank you for social distancing on Library grounds!

Title of the Week

The Night Circus
by Erin Morgenstern

"The world of Cirque des Rêves ignites a sense of wonder and a deep passion that inspire all who visit. I loved immersing myself in this book, watching how Celia and Marco stretch their talent and inspire all to run away with the circus."
