We're Back! The Library Reopens Today!

Shall we make a new rule of life from tonight — always to try to be a little kinder than is necessary? ~ J. M. Barrie


 I am on the edge of mysteries and the veil is getting thinner and thinner. ~ Louis Pasteur (born 27 December 1822)

A Very Short Christmas Fable


“Once upon a time, the Reindeer took a running leap and jumped over the Northern Lights.

But he jumped too low, and the long fur of his beautiful flowing tail got singed by the rainbow fires of the aurora.

To this day the reindeer has no tail to speak of. But he is too busy pulling the Important Sleigh to notice what is lost. And he certainly doesn’t complain."

Vera Nazarian, The Perpetual Calendar of Inspiration

The library will reopen on December 27th.

Our hearts grow tender with childhood memories and love of kindred, and we are better throughout the year for having, in spirit, become a child again at Christmas-time.
Laura Ingalls Wilder

Storytime with Sarah Beth

"Happy Holidays" Storytime: Tuesday, December 20th at 10:00 am.


December Movie




We will be showing Florence Foster Jenkins starring Meryl Streep and Hugh Grant for our December Adult Movie. In the 1940s, New York socialite Florence Foster Jenkins (Meryl Streep) dreams of becoming a great opera singer. Unfortunately, her ambition far exceeds her talent. The voice Florence hears in her head is beautiful, but to everyone else it is quite lousy. Based on a true story, Florence Foster Jenkins is a superbly acted drama.
