The library was closed Sat., Sept. 4th to have the carpets professionally cleaned and Mon., Sept. 6th in honor of Labor Day. Curbside pick-up appointments increased to 3 in September. Staff was excited to kick-off our fun lineup of Fall programming, beginning with our Plant Swap! Kelly Anderson and Jodi Bailey have been working on applications for three upcoming grant opportunities. |

We enjoyed lots of participation and positive feedback about our Plant Swap (all of the plants were adopted & went to caring homes). Two volunteers from the Friends of the Poynette Library delivered books to support our Pioneer Place community outreach. Katy Hanousek assisted patrons by frequently updating and monitoring the library's website and Facebook page. Katy and Kelly have been meeting with program presenters and finalizing preparations for all of our wonderful Fall program opportunities! |
