To the patrons who use the many services of the facility it is a place for social interaction: crafts, seminars, children’s activities, computer use and tech help and yes to borrow books.

One of the activities that the library has provided is the once a month trip to Cadence Residence to interact with the seniors who call it home.

Ardis Chedore of the Library was there this week and spent time with some of the residents in conversation and making book marks. She also assisted with tech help for someone there.

With the Town of Cochrane’s budget objective of reducing $100,000 from the funding of the Library, it is unknown if services such as these will become a thing of the past.
