Book Sales
Book sales occur twice a year, often in the Spring and in the Fall. Proceeds from the book sales goes towards supporting entertaining and informative programs the library, such as the ice cream social and summer reading program, as well as purchases like museum passes, the Adirondack chairs for the lawn, the covered area in the playground, and the vegetable garden.
Location
