Many thanks to our patrons and visitors for their continued patience as the Children’s Room and Community Room remain closed and the Friends Corner is temporarily suspended awaiting reconstruction from the flood in August. New vinyl plank flooring has been selected for the Children’s Program Room and Children’s Staff Workroom. Spray foam insulation has been installed. Construction should begin shortly to rebuild walls and paint, but unfortunately, we cannot provide a definitive timeline by which the work will be completed.  

Reeling from the loss of his brother in Vietnam, Richard moves with his family from California to his grandmother’s abandoned house in Utah where he finds the holiday spirit with the help of an elderly neighbor and his dog.

Request a book, a large-print book, an e-book on the Libby app (available on Android, iPhone, tablets and desktops). Stop by the library to take a Libby brochure home or ask a staff member for assistance.

The Borrower Services and Reference staff invite you to

check out an item from our two staircase displays in

Room 201 - Large Print/New Books.
