Happy New Year


Can you believe it? 2007 is already at an end. 2007 was a great year, but we are also looking forward to 2008. There are new books from some of our most popular authors are on the horizon this coming year and we look forward to getting them in for you.



In 2008 (January actually) we will be able to host another national traveling exhibit, this time on Alexander Hamilton. Last fall we started a reading/discussion group that ties in with the Hamilton exhibit. The group, Founding Mothers & Fathers, continues through August. We have new Preschool Story Time and Mommy & Me sessions starting this month also. Reading Time resumes this week as well.

A new program is scheduled to debut this month for single adults. On 29 January 2007 we'll be having our first single adult program, A Night of Comedy and Improv.

Whatever you tastes, come join this year as we welcome 2008.

Last library hours of 2007:

If you need one last trip to the library this year, we'll be open on New Year's Eve till 1 p.m. We will be closed New Year's Day, but will be ready for the new year's business at 10 a.m. on the second. We hope to see you soon and wish you a very happy new year!
