Resources & Programs for Adults

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, 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 still operating under the "Pop In & Pick Up" model 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.

Title of the Week

Martin Marten by Brian Doyle

"Martin Marten gifted me with a feeling that everything will be all right, giving a chance for the natural world to soothe and provide a bit of whimsy. To Doyle, every being, and even every non-living thing on Wy’east, is a character with a story that is worthwhile and exciting. This humble posture of radically inclusive awe and reverence was deeply moving."
