MINEOLA MEMORIAL LIBRARY | JUNE/JULY 2021
Chapter & Verse Library Announcements
Art Gallery Reopening in June! During the COVID shutdown, community members were asked to design puzzle pieces to come together to show our unity during this difficult time. These puzzle pieces were then put together to make one puzzle with many different designs based on the themes of the strength of our community during this struggle, the Coronavirus, and distance learning. The puzzle pieces will be displayed in the library for the month of June.
WIFI Whenever We are boosting our signal! Wifi Whenever is a service at the Mineola Library that extends our outdoor wireless internet signal to reach up to 300 feet, in all directions, covering our parking lot, and a good part of Memorial Park. Many residents who do not have broadband internet access consistently available at home have relied on the library as a vital place to connect to the world. We are now making our internet available to patrons 24 hours a day, whether in the library or not! Residents can use these networks for free to go online for school or work. Look for Mineola Wireless or Wifi Whenever on your phone's network list. Coming Soon: Storywalk in the Park!
