Poynette Library accepted food donations for the PAD Food Pantry during the month of November. The library is accepting donations for the Poynette Police Department's Shop-with-a-Cop program. The Friends of Poynette Library Silent Auction fundraiser consisted of 99 amazing baskets and ran from Nov. 15 to Dec. 4. The library was closed for the Thanksgiving holiday Nov. 25-26. Deb from SCLS assisted Jodi Bailey in hanging 15 lovely, donated, framed wildlife photos near the library's computers. The library has a new selection of magazine titles for patrons to enjoy. |
