Yes, Spring has arrived as far as the calendar goes, now Nebraska just has to catch up. When the weather warms up I can see from the Library windows people are venturing out and about and each week I have a few more use the library. I am hoping that more people will begin to […]

March is close to being half over and I just got back to using our word press account again. Technology and myself have a mixed relationship. Sometimes we are friends and other times not so much. So, I thought I would start off by saying, I am excited about the upcoming events that will be […]

Wednesday’s will be our special program […]
