“A library in the middle of a community is a cross between an emergency exit, a life-raft and a festival. They are cathedrals of the mind; hospitals of the soul; theme parks of the imagination. On a cold rainy island, they are the only sheltered public spaces where you are not a consumer, but a citizen instead” ― Caitlin Moran
Thank you to those that shopped our Barnes and Noble Book Fair last month, and to those that played BINGO at the Red Men and helped volunteer at the events!
Keep an eye out for the Holiday Basket Raffle, coming soon!
