Hello, and Happy Friday! 

Our new extended hours officially begin next week! Along with our preexisting Wednesday evening hours, we will now also be open until 8:00 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays. We'll also no longer be locking the doors ten minutes before closing, so feel free to pop in before we close. We're so excited, we could dance! (In fact, why not join us in dancing in next Tuesday's Tango Lessons?)

Also, please be aware that the library will be closed for Labor Day this coming Monday, September 2nd.
