Hi everyone,
It was nice to see some new faces at the library during our open house last week, including a couple who went to all five open houses held by the libraries in the Northern NH Library Cooperative. Of course, anytime we are open it’s an open house, though there may not always be cookies. Anytime our library is open we welcome your questions and do what we can to connect you to the information you need.
Here’s what’s happening this week at your library:
Bibliomaniacs reading club for kids age 10 and up, Mon 4/14, 5:00 PM

We’re using cotton yarn, knitting needles, and crochet hooks that were part of our Craft Supplies Swap. If you have cotton yarn you’re not using, please donate it for this project.
