Every December at Dalton Community Library, its is a great time to reflect back on all that our library has accomplished over the past year.
It is also encouraging to know that so many patrons and citizens of the community volunteer their time and talents to help make our library a success each year.
Our Fall Book and Bake sale was a great success. We want to especially thank all the people who came out to attend the sale and support our library.
Anyone who donated items, baked goods and helped with the set-up and or clean-up, a big thank you! We would also like to especially thank Beta Bread and Bailey’s for their generous donations. Please keep in mind our next sale will be held in April 2024.
Any donations you have for us are greatly appreciated. Please think of us when you are cleaning out an attic, garage or basement.
Our special programs and events are offered in part, due to the continued support of this Community. We have appreciated the increasing number of participants this year in our programs and thank all of you who have attended.
The Tuesday bridge group will be meeting as usual the month of December. We are always looking for new players to join us.
Saturday Spotlight will take a break from December and reconvene on January 27, 2024. We will be reading, “Horse” by Geraldine Brooks.
November saw plenty of events at the library, including a special presentation about Common Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases in Pennsylvania.
The Dalton Community Library is a place to feel comfortable while looking for a good book, browsing on the computer or just doing some research. Thanks again for all who support us! From all of us at Dalton Community Library we wish everyone a safe, healthy and happy holiday.
