Continuing the Crook County News Since 1884

This Week at Your Library

We are still doing curbside and delivery if you would prefer not to come inside. The statewide mask mandate has ended, but if you want to wear a mask in the library, we have masks available. Teens and children are encouraged to come in and use the computers and kids’ iPads. The meeting room is open for meetings, parties, etc. Please call the library for more information and availability. If you are a Master Gardener, will you please contact the library? We would like to have some gardening programs, and need a Master Gardener to lead them. Thanks! Thanks to the generosity of Les Fullerton’s family, we now have the Les Fullerton Memorial that is paying for InterLibrary Loan requests, as long as the money lasts. If you would like to contribute to this memorial to keep InterLibrary Loans free for our patrons, please let us know.

Displays: Joanne Moore’s eggs and Donna Allen’s teapots.
