Veterans' Day

Next Wednesday, November 11, is Veterans' Day, and the library will be CLOSED. Let's remember to honor all those who have served in the past, and those who are serving today. Whether or not we agree with the current military direction, these women and men have given up home and family to serve the greater good.

Computer Classes

We've just learned that our volunteer will not be offering computer classes this September and October.

If we were to approach our computer training differently, what would you want to see? Remember, these are general classes, so please do not ask for anything specific to what you do or your industry: We are seeking information about general classes that y'all would like to see.

Thanks!
