Book Club Meets
March12

The March selection for the Library Book Club is "Ford County" by John Grisham.  All are welcome to join the book discussion on Wednesday, March 12, at 1 p.m. in the Bolinger Room upstairs at the library.

 Winter Weather Policy:

The library’s winter weather policy: We will remain open if at all possible, however, if winter weather and poor road conditions require us to close, it will be announced on KRLL, 1420 AM. and KOMU TV, Channel 8.  As a guide, if the California R-1 School District closes due to bad weather, the library will usually be closed.  However, the library may choose to be open if conditions in town allow it.

  NOTICE: WE ARE NO LONGER ACCEPTING ANY DONATIONS OF BOOKS AND MEDIA.  We simply do not have staff time and storage space to handle all that we receive.  After the fall sale, we do not plan any future sales in this format.  All fundraising to benefit the library will be handled by the Friends of the Library beginning in 2014.
