New Season, New Programs Fall is nearly upon us. While the calendar may still say August as this is being written, leaves are beginning to fall, pumpkin spice has arrived, and Halloween decorations are already on the shelves. Change is in the air! There have been a lot of changes here at the library the last few months and you may have noticed a few new faces (and more to come). We also have plenty of new programs and clubs on our calendar. Whether you like to craft, play chess, watch movies, learn about tech, hear about hot topics, want to learn about Medicare, or listen to music, we have you covered. Check out our full calendar here, or drop in and pick up an adult programs pamphlet or fall newsletter (if you haven't already gotten one) to see the full lineup. We look forward to seeing you!
