Summer Happenings at the Walthill Public Library The Walthill Library Staff are ready to slow things down a little with school beginning soon. It has been such a fun summer. Nola has enjoyed reading and sharing with the youth from the summer program of the Omaha Nation Diabetes Prevention Center. The youth loved using the […]

Many rural libraries find it difficult to have full time staff. Walthill Library struggles with that as well. We are excited to welcome Lucille Big Fire as our new Library Assistant. Lucille is a long time resident of Walthill and works her days for the Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska. Lucille is doing a fine job […]

We have been looking out our large windows and seeing the progress of the Teepee shelter across the street from us each week. The shelter was donated and has been installed on the east corner of the park, across the street from the Walthill Public Library. At first, I wondered–if it was going to be […]

As hot as it has been this past few weeks, I find myself looking out the library windows more often than actually going outside. What do I see?

I was looking at the library blog the other day, and it had been a long time since I had posted anything. So much happening–packed–we moved–we got settled in–and then we discarded books again! Our library is a busy place with the lots of activities taking place here. I did tell my co-worker, Sherry, that we need […]

We have moved into our beautiful new library at 323 Main Street in Walthill.  It is hard for me to believe that the “Old Fire Hall” was transformed into the beautiful building we have now.  The new building is bright and cheerful and much larger, than the older one room library we have lived in […]

Just stopped in to check on the progress of the new library building. One of the construction team said, “It’s Coming Along.” Yes It is! There are new changes everyday now. The siding is up and it looks awesome.  The sheet rock is almost ready for painting, and soon the electric and plumbing fixtures will be installed. […]
