A Look Inside

Our library is not very big: 2,975 sq ft full of books, DVDs, VHSes, Puzzles, CDs, Audio Tapes, Large Print items, and more!

And some days it gets a little noisy: when Story Times are going and often at the Circulation Desk. (The Circulation Desk is in the thick of it all, but just ask us to shush and enjoy the moment: you got to tell a librarian to be quiet!)

A layout of the library is available as a .pdf file which you can print.

 

We offer a lot to browse through in our little world:
