Library Link
February 2018
Director's Note
We survived the holiday season and are fully into the ‘I am tired of the cold and wet’ season. This can seem like the longest time of the year for many. The days are short, the weather is cold and we can’t get outside like we want to. I hope the library can be a part of your plans to keep some of the winter blues at bay! We had a great time at our recent Luau- check out the pictures later in this newsletter. And the teens have a great event planned in February. I am so excited to check out ‘The Vestal is Dead’. This murder mystery party was entirely planned by a few members of our Y.A.C. team. Just keep an eye on Facebook for the most up to date information. We also make sure that the Carlisle Citizen and the Wildcat Weekly have the information as well.
Speaking of the Carlisle Citizen… I am excited to partner with them on a plan to digitize issues of the Citizen going all the way back to 1909. The papers will be text searchable to make research so much easier and cleaner. A huge thank you to the Carlisle Chamber who awarded us $500 towards this project. I am working on securing additional grant funding before the project starts. So please stay tuned!
