Busy Bees Trick-or-Treat at the Library

The Busy Bees stopped by the library today to collect some Halloween candy.


Our skeleton helped hand out candy at the circulation desk. (He needs to put on a little weight. Maybe the candy will help...)

Halloween

Stop by the library for a treat and while you are here, check out a book or DVD.  We have lots of spooky titles like A History of Horror by Wheeler Winston Dixon.  You never know what subjects lurk in the library!

Presidential Display Case

The library display case is featuring political books this month with an emphasis on presidential elections.  A great selection of books is available about the candidates, campaigns, the election process,  and politics in the United States.  Come to the library for your political information before you make your choice!  Voter registration forms are also available.
