Library Announcements

* 2021 Library Trustee Vote:  this year, the Library will hold a Trustee vote concurrently with the WVCSD school budget vote on Tuesday, May 18.  No additional tax support for the Library will be requested for the 2021/2022 fiscal year.  Read here for full details.

* Good News!  AWPL is happy to report that library materials will no longer be quarantined upon return.  This change will speed up the fulfillment of holds.  As a corollary, indoor book return slots have been reopened for your convenience, supplementing the outdoor bookdrop, which is open 24/7.

* Backyard Birds:  please join us on Zoom on Tuesday, April 27 at 6:00pm as the Orange County Audubon Society offers a multimedia presentation on interesting bird facts, key identification features and the calls of common birds you may see your backyard and neighborhood.  A Zoom link will be emailed to all registrants in advance of the program.  Please register here. 

* AWPL Seed Library:  The AWPL Seed Library is accepting donations!  A seed library takes some time and effort to put together, but the way it works is simple: local gardeners donate seeds after harvesting, and “borrow” seeds from the library at planting time. We are now accepting seeds of all types to stock the library.  Please bring any seed donations in a sealed bag, envelope or other container labelled with the name of the seed and any other details you can provide - including whether the seeds are organic.  We hope to be ready to open the seed collection soon.  Use of the seed library will be free and available to all library users. For more information, please call the Library's Help Desk at 986-1047, ext. 3.
