CONNEAUTVILLE - Only two short weeks until tax season comes to a close. We still have plenty of federal tax forms available for you. The state forms are very limited so if you need one you should come in as soon as possible.

Congratulations to Debbie Clark for winning the “Winter Library Challenge”. We would like to thank everyone that participated.

Storytime continues on Tuesday at 10:00 a.m. Miss Julie always puts together an exciting program with stories, crafts, learning stations, and snacks! We are so fortunate to have a great group of caregivers and children. The library is a great place to make connections within the community, and it is a pleasure to see that taking place here.

Miss Kortney has been working diligently on labeling the books with the correct AR Level. She has completed the Juvenile section and is now working on the Easy Reader books. Hopefully, labeling the books will be a help to the children.

Technology classes are available at the library. If you need help with your iPad, phone, computer, or any other electronic devise call the library and we can set up a class for you.

If you are interested in Knitting or Crocheting we have a class at the library on Thursday mornings at 10:00 with Debbie Clark. If you want to learn how to crochet you will be able to get some help from Debbie or if you already have a project started and would just like to join us that would be great!
