THANKS TO ALL WHO MADE OUR RECENT SILENT AUCTION SUCH A SUCCESS!!

With the help of an Amish carpenter, we have completely removed the shelving on one side of the room, doing away with unused space at top and bottom and rebuilding the shelves to accommodate the picture books without having to lay the taller ones on their side. This means we had to repaint the shelving the primary colors but it will be so much easier to shelve books. We tore up the old carpet and are putting down Allure with a wood grain look. Our Eric Carle oval rug will look nice when the flooring is complete.

Jim McCarthy and Family again helped us celebrate our ANNUAL CHRISTMAS TEA with their Christmas music. We had a full parking lot for the two hours and lots of delicious finger foods. The HUGE Christmas stocking was won by Janet Barnard.

We are holding a Christmas Card Class on Monday night, November 27 at 6 pm ... $10 per person ... you can make 5 Christmas Cards for those special people on your list. Katrina Wolfe of Williamstown, NY is the demonstrator. You can call her at 315-439-4933 (cell) or 315-964-7762 (home) if you have any questions. Join us for a fun evening!

The construction on our library roof is nearly complete. The sections of the old ugly metal roof were removed and is being replaced with matching black shingles. The old two story section of the original building had absolutely no insulation so this was blown in. JLS of Camden is our contractor and we are hoping our NYS Library Construction Grant goes through. If you could see what this building looked like when we opened in June 2000, you wouldn't believe it!
