Bring your questions and ideas and come for a cup of coffee, hot chocolate or hot cider.

Books are at the Library, stop by and pick one up to read with us. March meeting for Book group will be March 16 at 1:00. Everyone is welcome to join us!
Tech Time – are you stumped with your mobile device and need a little help? Wednesday mornings are a good time to come up to the Library for a little one-on-one help. I’m not an expert but I can help with most day to day tasks – get an app downloaded, get books to read or listen to on your device, send and receive emails and texts, and so on.
YOU have to know and remember your login and passwords to all accounts – I can’t and won’t help you with this! But once we’re in I’m happy to help!!
