Blind Date With a Book

Join us in February for our 9th annual Blind Date with a Book!  Select a wrapped book as your “blind date.”  Give it a read, rate your date, and enter your rating slip into a prize drawing.  This is a great way to find a new favorite author or genre.  Rating slips must be returned by March 21.

Coming Soon – Jigsaw Puzzles!

There have been a lot of requests for jigsaw puzzles recently and we are happy to say we will begin circulating them soon.  Donations of new or gently used puzzles will be accepted.
