Join our monthly group that meets to watch movies based on books. We’ll watch “To Kill a Mockingbird” on Tuesday, Dec. 21, at 5:30 p.m. in the library basement. Copies of the book can be checked out at the library. Participants are not required to read the book to attend!

The library will be closed Dec. 24, Dec. 25, Dec. 31 and Jan. 1. Remember that the outside book drop and external Wi-Fi are always available. Have a great holiday season!

We’d like to extend a gracious thank you to all the community members who took the time to stop by Friday for our holiday sale. We had a great turnout! The library staff would also like to thank the library board members and Ontario Knit Wits for baking goodies and making handmade items for the sale. We appreciate your time and talents!
