Well, we are still moving forward. 
 
Thank you for embracing curbside service as we continue to brave the new world of COVID-19. Your usage of online resources has increased tremendously. Special thanks to all of you who participated in the recent virtual resources usage survey.  
 
You , your children and teens participated in online programs and registered for the 2020 Summer Reading Program. Library staff worked tirelessly to find new things to offer and to make materials available as fast as possible.  
 
Library employees are working hard to align resources to meet your fall and winter reading and educational needs.  Please know that we are all investigating innovative ways to navigate students' needs, whether with online learning or in-person learning.  
 
Finally, stay tuned for new information about services, programs and materials as it becomes available. The summer may be waning, but adventure awaits within the pages of your favorite book; or, on your favorite device. Take the time, slow down, grab some sweet tea (and/or lemonade) and read. 
 
Reading will move you forward.
