Get your new library card today! We have new library cards with key tags.  Any existing patron can turn in their current card for a new one free of charge (you will not be able to keep the same number).  New patrons also get a free card.  If your card is lost, the replacement fee is $2, just as it's always been.  Please remember that you will need to complete the card application to replace or update your library card, so bring in your proof of address!

The library will be closed on May 30 in observance of Memorial Day.  We are open regular hours for Saturday and Sunday May 28 and 29.
We will close again on June 8-9 for inventory and parking lot repair.
