Dear NWPL Patrons,
I couldn't have imagined a month ago how quickly September would arrive but here we are -- and, so far, it's pretty darn glorious. At least it is right here in Woodstock although there has been enormous devastation around the country from hurricanes, fires and other weather events. Just ten years ago, we felt the brunt of that with Tropical Storm Irene. Recent stories in the news are a reminder that, for many, these events are not so far in the rearview mirror -- and make us all the more cognizant of the suffering people around the country are experiencing.
This afternoon, Friday, September 3, come to the library for a little bit of transport to something more awe inspiring and beautiful. We will host a reception with photographer Kip King from 4 - 5:30 pm on the Mezzanine. King will also give a short talk. His work will be on exhibit through October.

It's early, but not too early, to reserve a spot to give an e-bike a test spin for free. Read below for details about our partnership with Local Motion to bring a few e-bikes to the library over the first weekend in October. They are popular so do sign up if you're interested.
We're also accepting book donations again. In fact, we really need them. We'll be holding an outdoor vintage book sale the last Saturday in September and it's been hard to keep our shelves stocked in our foyer book sale. Give the library a call to arrange a good time to drop off your books. Thanks in advance for the book donations.
Happy Labor Day! See you again on Tuesday.
