April drawing

April 4-10 is National Library week...

...but we are celebrating all month long. Any item checked out during the month of April will be entered into a drawing to receive one of two gift cards to Brook Community Breakfast. Winners will be drawn in May.

We will also have our "We Love Our Library" signs available for pickup. Place one in your yard to show our library some love

Congratulations to Michelle C. and Moira B. for winning our March drawing!

Spring Decor take and make

Adults and teens ages 15 and up can pick up a Take and Make kit filled with supplies to craft a cute wooden sign featuring a robin’s egg sitting in a moss covered nest. As crafters create their project, they will learn how to use the crafting medium Mod Podge through supplied informational flyers. This fun decoupage technique can be used in all sorts of projects, and is a handy skill to have! Kits contain all needed supplies and are free of charge.
