Community

Free Food Resources

Community is important to us, which is why we spend so much energy on providing resources and serving the community. We provide two resources to help combat food insecurity in our community:

  • Books & Bread is a free drive-up pop-up pantry.
  • Compassion Kitchen is a fresh food resource in our library lobby. 
  • Community Gardens. 

Literacy

Book Clubs

We now have two library led book clubs. Savvy Seniors meets at the Senior Center and is led by Katy. Those interested in staying for lunch, can contact the Senior Center ahead of time.

Archival Revival is a historical fiction book club that is led by Angie. Both clubs meet once per month and anyone is invited to attend. Books, including audio and large print copies, are available at the library leading up to the discussions.
