Donations: The library is accepting donations of relatively new, clean books. Please DO NOT leave donations in the book drop. Bring them to the circulation desk or drop them off at the Book Cellar Annex on the square. Donations in the book drop overstuff the box and lead to library books being damaged.
The Book Cellar Annex on Town Square is now open Monday through Saturday from 11a.m. to 3p.m.
Conference rooms can be reserved at the library. Our small and large conference rooms may be reserved up to 90 days in advance and require at least 48 hours notice. The rooms are for use by local agencies, clubs and interest groups and no selling or other collection of funds is permitted. The rooms are not reserved for individuals. Call the library to check availability and to get a reservation form or more information. The tutoring room is still available on a first-come, first-served basis.
