Welcome Back!

The library will open on September 8th for high school students. Middle school students will be able to sign up for the library beginning on September 14th. The sign up procedure remains the same as last year: students must come to the library before the start of first period in order to sign up to use the library during their study hall periods that day. We do allow sign ups in advance and sheets are available on Fridays for the following week.

The library is open M-Th from 7:15-3:00 pm and on Fridays from 7:15-2:15. If you need to stay later please see Mrs. Belanger to make special arrangements.

We have been able to add some new material this year because of a grant from the Community Foundation. We have added People Magazine, books on producing comics and 'zines as well as many new books for recreational reading. Stop in and check things out!
