The library will be getting new carpeting throughout the building on Monday, August 21 through Wednesday, August 23. We will be closed these dates for the work to take place. Unfortunately, our telephone will not be working.
If you need help or have a question, please email the Director, Pam Burch at pamburch@comcast.net or send a text to 617-538-2507.
You can return all items to us via our book drop located in the front of the building.
