Computer Use:

Community members with a valid community library card may be allowed restricted access to select library computers not being used by students, faculty or staff. 

Fireside Readers Book Discussion Group:

The Fireside Readers Book Discussion Group was formed in October 2005.  Discussions are open to members of the area community, as well as college students, faculty and staff.  Over the past few years we have focused on discussing memoirs, biographies, and other works of nonfiction.  Several members of the group have been with us since the beginning, and others join us when we're reading a book of personal interest.  For more information view the Fireside Readers Book Discussion Group LibGuide.

Chat service is available during normal hours of operation.
