PML Library hours changing . . .

Newfields community members should be aware that the Library Board of Trustees unanimously approved the expanded hours of service proposal at their monthly meeting last Tuesday.  The new library hours will incorporate seven additional hours of library service to the community without the town incurring any increase in staff salary. As the director, I am encouraged these hours will allow more folks to benefit from the valuable services the library provides to the community in the way free educational and recreational resources. The new hours are posted on the web (to your right), and on the front door to the library. Thanks to Kim, Loren and Win!
