Long-time residents may recall the excitement when the library presented a computer-based catalogue and bar-coded patron cards in 1993. Since then, thanks to many dedicated volunteers with IT experience, additional electronic services -- Internet access for research purposes, MS Office, interlibrary loans -- are now offered, too.
The library will be closed today and Tuesday for the next upgrade to the automated cataloguing and circulation system and staff training. The library reopens Wednesday at 1 p.m.

Storytimes on Friday mornings is a popular and well-attended program at the library. Time for Tots, for three to five year olds, is a half-hour of stories, rhymes, crafts, and activities starting at 10:15 a.m.
The library also offers another half-hour of fun, Babies and Books, designed for those under three, starting at 11 a.m.
The pre-school storytimes introduce young children to a wide variety of experiences, help develop listening skills, and provide fun for children and adults alike. Pre-registration is not required.
