The Library's carpets were cleaned over Labor Day weekend. Jodi Bailey continued to work with the Village Administrator & the Budget Committee on the Library's 2021 Budget. The Library was awarded funds through the "DPI CARES Act" grant toward the purchase of a self-check machine. The remaining cost will be covered under the Village's "Routes to Recovery" grant. The self-check machine arrived on Oct 1 & we're awaiting SCLS setup assistance. Katy & Jodi collaborated with Poynette Middle School ELA Staff to assist students with Overdrive check-out of free e-books. Three generous memorial donations were received in September. The Friends of the Library purchased some replacements & added new titles to our Early Reader collection. We continued offering Curbside Service in September. There were 26 Curbside pick-up appointments scheduled by patrons from 09/01 to 09/30. |
