Change in Unattended Children Procedure

For the protection of our youngest library users, we have raised the age of unattended children in the Children’s Area.
 
Starting August 15th, children need to be at least eight years old to be without a parent in the Children’s Area. Children who watch younger siblings without the aid of an adult will have to be at least twelve years old.

Print Kiosk

A new print kiosk has been installed for printing from the public computers. This kiosk will allow for more privacy and control of your printouts from the public Internet computers, word processors, or databases.

Microsoft Office 2007

The library's word processing software has been upgraded to Word 2007. This upgrade will help the library keep pace with the standard software on home and school computers. You can still save your documents in Word 2003, if needed, and learn more about Word 2007 in our monthly computer workshops.

Introducing Playaways

Playaways are the newest way to enjoy audio books.Playaways are digital books on their own players. You don't have to download - they are ready to play! Playaways, like cassette tapes, can be stopped and started without losing your place. They can be worn around your neck (with the accompanying lanyard) or fit in your pocket so you can listen to a book while you are on the go.
