We have a good selection of mysteries, arts, crafts, music, sports, fiction, newer releases, children’s books and more. There are also DVDs galore. Your book donations are welcome anytime.

Library Notes: Ireland’s Marsh’s Library prevented theft by locking their patrons up in cages should they want to read something. Joyce writes about this in ‘Ulysses,’ stating “Beauty is not there.”
