Curbside Services Begin June 1!
After months of only being able to offer digital services the Nevins Library is so happy to announce that we will be offering curbside services starting June 1. This means you'll be able to order books and dvd's from the catalog and pick them up at the library after following our procedures. We will also offer printing of documents and Notary Public services by appt. We are thrilled to be able to at least get some physical materials into the hands of our patrons.

Please read the instructions carefully. Until statewide delivery returns, we will only be able to access materials that "live" in our library.




This Library is slowly getting back in business. While it may not resemble the library of February, there will be books available and a way to retrieve them. Also, we will have other services such as notary and curbside printing. Visit the website for the most complete information.
Introducing our new YA Librarian - Alison Asmus
My name is Alison Asmus and I am the new Teen Services Librarian. I am originally from Connecticut, but I love living in Massachusetts.. In my free time, I love reading, watching movies on Netflix, doing yoga, and spending time with my friends and family. I plan to host some fun virtual programs this summer, including virtual movie days and virtual summer reading programs. I will also be hosting a Teen Check-In on June 10, to allow teens time to hang out virtually and talk about how they've been spending their time of social distancing. I'm looking forward to working with the teen patrons of Nevins Memorial Library.

What's Happening Down in Children's?
Wildlife Encounters on Zoom!!
June 23 6:30-7:30pm
Believe it or not, the Summer Reading season is almost here, and the Children's Department will start it off with a live Zoom broadcast from Wildlife Encounters – which means everyone gets a front-row seat to see the animals! Children will learn about seven species, including a Fennec Fox – you'll love its huge ears – and an alligator, and they'll be able to ask questions at the end of the program.


Meanwhile, we'll continue to provide storytimes and other fun content via the Nevins Library Children's Room Facebook page – check out the page to see what's new every day, or go to the library website to see the list of available videos. Hope to see you in person sometime soon!
