Happy Library Lovers' Month!
Our patrons sure know how to make the Library staff smile. Throughout the pandemic,
you have been so generous with your gratitude, notes of appreciation and support, and even homemade treats! The Library team would like to take this moment during Library Lovers' Month to say "thank you" right back, and we would bake each of you a batch of cookies
if we could! Thank you for making the Library great.
 
Find Books & More at YOUR Library 
or at Home!
A library card gives you online access to downloadable eBooks, eAudiobooks, and eMagazines to enjoy on your computer, tablet, or phone. Use Library databases to find consumer information, health and government information, educational and employment resources, and newspapers.
 
Don't have a library card? No problem! Register for a card online.
