Good afternoon,

Happy New Year! If your New Year's Resolutions involve getting out and meeting new people or trying something new, the library has you covered with events around the county. As we've passed the winter solstice, the days are getting longer again, but winter has just begun. What better time to curl up with a good book or check out some of the things the library has to offer? February will bring our first "Love Your Library" winter reading program. We've also invited Urban Jazz Coalition to perform a celebration in music for Black History Month. Mark your calendars for February 20th, and plan to join us at the CHS auditorium.

Much more to come this year, so stay tuned.  As always, if you have suggestions for library events, I love to hear them. See you at the library!
