Thanks to Jeremiah McIntosh, our library has become a charitable nonprofit organization. This means that you can now support our library with your tax-deductible donations. This status will also enable us to apply for grants from private organizations and the government.

We are creating a place where genealogy searches can be conducted
Downstairs in the Barbara Porter room, we will be creating a place where we will provide helpful information on conducting searches. Our existing materials will be stored in one area. If you have done extensive research on your own and would like to provide the library with your research, we would love to add it to our collection. Also, when you are in the library, you have free access to Ancestry.com. We can help you get started with your search.

Something for Everyone
Plan to stop in between 6:00 - 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday evenings to find a bargain at our store. If this is a bad time, you are welcome to check out our store any time the library is open. Just check in with our librarian, Lois Walton, and she will direct you to the store. Our books are no longer marked with a price. All we ask is that you leave a donation for our new Toddler Area.

Would you like to learn new knitting techniques such as turning the heel of a sock, making mittens with thumbs, the ten-stitch blanket, lace, fair isle color knitting? This is the place to come. All ages are welcome! It will also be a place where people who would just like to sit and knit with like-minded people are welcome. We are open to whatever the participants would like.
We are really enjoying this time and would love to have you join in the fun.
