DIRECTOR’S UPDATE: It has been a busy summer at the Library with regular building maintenance and special projects in addition to summer learning programs. Regular maintenance included replacing worn carpet at the front desk and staff work room. Maintenance staff used a lift to remove ivy from the second-floor exterior of the original Carnegie building to abate water infiltration. At the same time, maintenance crews investigated construction details and roofing on the turrets for needed repairs. The lift was used at the Follett House to repaint a second story window sash on the north side of the building. One project over the summer involved organizing the fiction collection and creating space for more new titles. Our primary goal with the reorganization was to make it easier for patrons to search for their favorite authors. Many authors write books across genres that include mystery, suspense, and historical fiction, making them difficult to find. Shelving titles by separate genres meant an author’s works could be in multiple locations. Fiction is now organized alphabetically by author, so a writer’s works are all in the same place. Readers can still find favorite genres on the shelf identified by their spine labels. As ever, Library staff is always ready to help you find just the right book. Please ask! The 2020 U. S. Census will be conducted primarily online for the first time. The Library will play a critical role assisting census takers working toward a complete count by providing public access to the internet. Watch for the next newsletter for updates on the 2020 Census. Molly Carver, Executive Director
TRAVELING EXHIBIT
