We can't believe the response to this year's "Food for Fines" drive! Your donations of food items and cash helped write off fines AND feed our community.
Thank you to community partners at First Baptist Church, First Christian Church, First United Methodist Church, Cherry Street Youth Center, Highland Avenue United Brethren Church, New Hope Baptist Church, and Zion Lutheran Church for making sure these donations find their way to those who need them!

A hearty thank you to the American Baptist Women at First Baptist Church for bringing our staff some delicious plates of goodies! (We admit we were a little eager to eat snacks and didn’t grab a photo before we ate several…)

Wednesdays are for WIPs (that's a "Work in Progress" to you not-yet-crafty folks)! We'd love to see you and your projects, or you and a desire to learn any number of fiber crafts (we have lots of yarn!). Come down to the library to chat, learn, and make some progress!

It's a new month, which means it's a new opportunity to be adventurous with your tastebuds. Come pick up this month's aromatic spice, learn a little bit about it, and have a new favorite recipe (or two) to add to your repertoire!

If you pick up "21 Lessons for the 21st Century", you can read a lesson a day with your time remaining before Christmas!

Giving Tuesday is today!
It's a wonderful way to give back to your community, whether to local non-profit organizations or national ones.
If you are considering donations, please think of the library. As you probably already aware, we put on most of our programs and services for free -- like Homebound Delivery, craft programs, public access computers, and WiFi. Other services (such as printing and faxing) are at a low cost.
Donations help us ensure we can continue to support our community and grow to bigger and better heights!

You have 22 days until Christmas: why not pick up the classic Joseph Heller novel "Catch-22"?
There are 23 days until Christmas! Linwood Barclay`s book "The Twenty-Three" could be your next great read.
Still looking for that perfect holiday gift? Why not pick up the book "24-Hour Knitting Projects"? You have 24 days to make a unique gift!
The results are in!
Freshly-made cranberry sauce is the winner with 20 votes. Canned cranberry sauce had 12, and 11 people chose “neither!”.
We hope you have a safe and restful Thanksgiving. See you Saturday!
What are we reading this week, friends?
Holiday prep and cleaning got you down? Put a little pep in your step by borrowing an audiobook through one of our cloud library services! Unsure how to access Hoopla or Cloud Library? Call us at the library and we`ll walk you through it!
To allow our staff time to gobble up as many good books and mashed potatoes as they can, we will have some holiday closures next week. The library will close early at 1 pm on Wednesday, November 27th, and remain closed until Saturday, November 30th. On November 30th we will be open with our regular hours from 9am to 5 pm.
