Our New Telescope!

Thanks to a very generous donation from the New Hampshire Astronomical Society, we now have a new telescope that can be checked out (soon)! We join about 80 other libraries in the state that offer this unique item to share.

Keep posted for a Star Gazing event to be held in the near future!

The library staff will try out the telescope and learn exactly how to use it before it can be checked out. Then we can give you the right information for successful star gazing in your own backyard.

Here is a picture of Pete and Gerry Smith who delivered our telescope on July 13th.IMG_2928
