Goodbye & thanks from "Jenny A."

I wanted to say thank you to all the kind people who have made me feel welcome here for the last two years.

I am returning to Portland's Salt Institute for Documentary Studies (www.salt.edu), and will also be helping out with www.LibraryThing.com.

Thank you for the thoughtful notes, gifts, and words of encouragement. Have a wonderful spring!

A Common Yarn...welcomes Anna Poe

Anna Poe, owner of KnitWits on Congress Street in Portland will visit our knitting group to discuss the ins and outs of owning a yarn store, what's new and other yarn threads. Please join us on Friday, April 20th at noon in the Russell Room. The public is more than welcome to join us!

The Giant Spring Book Sale is almost here!

Each Spring the Falmouth Memorial Library holds a giant book sale filled with books, videos, and audio books that we have sorted into semi-logical groupings. These are a combination of items that have been donated and items that have been withdrawn from our collection. There's something for all ages and interests. Prices are extremely reasonable and get even more reasonable the last 2 hours of the sale. The sale will be held Saturday, April 28 from 9:30 am until 5 pm. There is also a sneak preview especially for current members of our Friends group on Friday, April 27 from 4 to 6 pm. Friends get in free. Others may also enter for a $5 per person donation. All proceeds benefit the Falmouth Memorial Library. Hope you can make it!

Spring Cleaning

We've switched the Reference and Audio Departments! Our reference room is now where the audiobooks and music collection were housed. This move was done to allow space for our new Reference Desk and to allow our Reference Librarian more time in the Reference area.

The audiobook and music collections have been shifted over to the former Reference Room. The room is brighter and allows our patrons some room to sit and look over their selections. We've also placed a tape player on a table for you to listen to your selections prior to checking them out.

Check out our new space!

When is Falmouth Author's Day?

Saturday, March 24th in the library's Russell Room from 1-3pm. Drop by and chat with published authors from Falmouth! We're displaying their books at the end of our new bookcase.

Check Us Out!

We are Spring cleaning here at the library. Check out our new bookcase. The new adult non-fiction and new fiction are displayed here. Let us know what you think.
