PARK N READ
Enjoy a great book in the great outdoors!
We are happy to be one of the many Michigan libraries participating in the new "Park N Read" program. You may "borrow" a one-day vehicle permit to any Michigan State park, which is good for 7 days. Plus, many parks will have a hammock available for you to use. We'll have 4 passes available to loan all summer, through September 25. So come to the library, get some books and a park pass, and enjoy a relaxing -- and FREE -- day of reading outdoors. Ah, summertime...
GOT USED BOOKS?
Please donate your gently-used books to our Friends of the Library Book Sales.Clean off your shelves and help the library at the same time!
Our next booksale is Saturday, July 11, 10:00am - 3:00pm. You may attend the Early Bird Sale from 9:00 - 10:00am for $1.00.
We take ALL books (and DVDs, videos & CDs) except textbooks and encyclopedias.
Also, books that are, well, icky (smoky, dirty, or moldy) are better off taken to the recycling center. Smoke odor and mold can quickly spread from book to book.
