Beginning Tuesday, October 3, the following library items will temporarily move into storage:

MOST MOVIES
ALL MUSIC CDs
ALL CHILDREN’S AUDIOBOOKS

This action is necessary as we prepare to move into the west side of the building. We believe that items moved to storage will remain unavailable for the next 2-4 weeks.
