Thank you!
The Library would like to extend a big thank you to everyone who participated in the feasibility study interviews. The insights you gave us will be very useful during the process of planning for the fund raising campaign to help finance the Library renovation and expansion.We know that it took some time and effort on your part to help us in this way.
Many have asked us when we are going to break ground for our project. The Library Board of Trustees and staff members have been working hard toward that goal and hope to have some good news soon!
