Late February 2020 library news
Here's a quick update from your library to round out the month...

Join us for Grown-up Story Hour this Thursday, February 27 at 6:00 p.m. at Liberty Way Tap House. Our volunteers and staff will read while you sit back and relax. This month we're going for a "love" theme - familial love, romantic love, love gone right, love gone wrong... who knows what our readers will come up with? There's no charge to attend, but beverages are available from Liberty Way and pizza is available from Home Slice.

Also happening this week: our twice-monthly "Coffee and Coloring" group meets on Friday at 2-4 p.m. Join us for coloring and paper crafts - bring your own or use our coloring sheets and supplies, and enjoy a relaxing afternoon with new friends.

Back by popular demand : next month we'll be hosting another Craft Swap on Friday, March 27th, so mark your calendar. Clean out the craft room and find those supplies you'll never use, bring them to the library to give away, and take home some of other people's unwanted supplies. We'll also run a second "Ditch the Dish!" class on streaming media on March 24 at 11:00 a.m. Learn what you'll need to know to get rid of your satellite/cable TV subscription and stream media on one of the many new services out there. We'll be offering another great door prize, too.

View our online calendar of events for the latest updates, or follow us on Facebook for even more library news.

New titles on our DVD shelf and titles coming in March will include: Knives Out , A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood , Midway , Parasite , Color Out of Space , Dark Waters , Uncut Gems , Jumanji: the next level , Richard Jewell , 1917 , Ford v. Ferrari , Star Wars episode IX , and more.

New books at the library this month include: Brother & Sister by Diane Keaton, The Country Guesthouse by Robyn Carr, A Divided Loyalty by Charles Todd, Country Strong by Linda Lael Miller, Children of the Land by Marcelo Hernandez Castillo, House on Fire by Joseph Finder, The Splendid and the Vile by Erik Larson, and When we were Vikings by Andrew Macdonald.

Each month we add dozens of new movies and books to our library collections so check our library catalog for all the new titles you want. Be sure to place holds on your favorites - it really is the best way to get what you want!
