April 14th will be here before you know it. We’re winding things up here–packing up, discarding items, looking forward to moving in the the new Quisenberry building at 605 E.Northside Drive.  We will close at 9pm on the 14th and reopen at the Quisenberry  Branch on May 3rd at 9am.

We started our Friends of the Library Booksale today. Patrons have been in and out all day! It will run until we’ve sold out! We have books, videos, magazines….you name it….fiction, non-fiction, classics, biographies, reference, children’s materials, etc. You can’t beat prices like: $1 for hardback and paperback at just .25 cents (or 5 for $1). Buying books from this sale is good for your mind (and wallets), but also good for us. We’re making room for new materials. All proceeds from our booksales go back into supporting the library and our various programs.

We will no longer be accepting donations at the A.E. Wood branch. We have so many books around us, please hold donations for the time being.

The community at large is invited for an open house on Sunday, May 2nd from 2p-5pm. Be among the first ones to see one of the most beautiful public libraries and to support the great town of Clinton.

Happy Reading,

Shellie
