Knitters Needed!

Knitters, are you looking for a project to help your needier neighbors? We are collecting knitted hats, mittens, scarves, and gloves to distribute to local families. We need both adult and children’s sizes. You can bring your knitted items to the front desk or the main desk in the Children’s Room.

Museum Passes

Are you worried that your kids will drive you crazy over the holiday vacation? The Library has a low cost or free way to have some fun with your family during the holiday break. We now have passes for the Currier Museum in Manchester, the Children’s Museum in Dover, the NH Historical Society in Concord, the Wright WWII Museum in Wolfeboro and the Christa McAuliffe Planetarium in Concord. These passes are FREE to adult patrons with valid library cards (also FREE for residents). Due to high demand, we strongly urge patrons to reserve passes.

Part of Staying Healthy is Eating Well

Do you know that there are Winter Farmers Markets at Wentworth Greenhouses and Exeter High School every Saturday? We have the newest issue of Seacoast Harvest- a directory of local farms and their products. These are FREE at the Library along with the dates of the Winter Farmer’s Markets. Remember, WIC vouchers can be used for fresh produce at Farmer’s Markets --an economical and great way to get all those necessary vitamins to keep your family healthy through the winter months!

Public Health Alert

We are making every effort to keep our staff and patrons healthy through this nasty flu season; so while we truly appreciate our community’s enthusiasm for our programs, if you are not feeling well or are just outright sick, please, please, please do NOT go out in public places like the Library!!

We will be glad to renew your books over the phone, and remember we do offer the downloadable audio book program that you can do right at home.

Please call us at 755-2944 x 2 for further
assistance and stay home and get well!
