Can you feel it? Spring is right around the corner!
We're ready for the change. We have some exciting springtime events coming up in March (Decluttering! Ag Week! Gardening!). And, best of all, the construction crews will be finishing up the new library expansion in the next couple of months.

We have changed our plans for the Open Your Library: Grand Re-Opening Celebration that we announced in our last email newsletter. We still want to celebrate with you, so keep an eye on future emails for more details. We'll let you know the new dates soon. Thank you!
