Month: August 2016

Have you seen our new book drop box?  These young men are trying it out on the first day it arrived.  Our old box just rusted through and could no longer be relied upon to keep the books safe and dry.  Our new box is refurbished from its former life working at a movie rental store!  It is brushed steel and guaranteed for life and will hold up to 150 items.  Your tax dollars at work.

This weekend Germantown will celebrate the 49th Annual Spassfest.  It’s a celebration of our German heritage and runs from 4pm Friday August 19th through noon on Sunday August 21st.  There will be rides, games, music, food and drinks.  Come out and visit us!  The parade is scheduled for Sat. Aug. 20th at 5:30pm.  The library’s entry will showcase German fairy tales.  We will be open our regularly scheduled hours on Friday and Saturday.

If you enjoy crocheting or are interested in learning more about it, check out our newest periodical, Crochet!  It is chock full of photos and projects, geared to anyone from beginner to expert.  The autumn issue just came in and would be perfect for planning your fall and winter projects.

Due to the high usage on patron computers, we’ve instituted a 1 hour time limit per person per day.  This will allow more people to access the computers.  Note, this is only for recreational use.  If you need a computer for work, job hunting or school projects, the time limit does not apply.  We thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
