Getting Ready for the June Book Sale

We're currently getting prepared for our book sale on June 23rd and 24th. First off, we'll be accepting donations at the Old Fire House on Saturdays from 9 am-12 pm. As always, we take anything except for encyclopedias, textbooks, and periodicals. Secondly, we're looking for volunteers to help out with the donations, as well as the book sale itself; call 879-7576 for more information.

Borrow ebooks through Listen Up! Vermont

If you just received a Kindle, Nook, or iPad, or have had one for years, we'd just like to remind you that you can borrow ebooks through the library, using the Listen Up! Vermont website. Here are our new instructions.
