    The public is invited to celebrate the reopening of the C.H. Booth Library, Saturday, March 22, during regular library hours, 9:30 am to 5 pm.

  • The Library Is Open!

    To the Editor:

    Yippee! The library is open! The freshly-painted walls and new carpeting look great, but best of all, our wonderful librarians are back!

    Thank you for all your hard work and for reopening so quickly. We missed you.

    Sincerely,

    Marian and Wally Wood
