Here we go....our new circulation system is beginning to have an effect. As of today, May 15, no new items can be entered into the system state-wide. So...if you are looking for a new title, you will likely not see it as available. Check with us, though....we are doing our best to both obtain and circulate in-house, new items....using the same method libraries used ions ago...manual card system.

Preschool Sing & Swing : Music & Movement Program
Deb’s 30 minute program features lots of audience participation through the use of guitar music, singing, dancing, storytelling, rhythm instruments, scarves, parachute, beanbags and action games.
Funded by Beginning Years Family Network. "Beginning Years Family Network is a grant funded by the MA Department of Early Education & Care and administered by the YMCA of Central MA/Boroughs Family Branch.”
Please Note: As of today, Tuesday May 15, NO NEW ITEMS will be entered into the CWMARS system state-wide in preparation for the transition to the new system called EVERGREEN. New releases will NOT be available through inter-library loan till early June.
We will continue to circulate our new items, in-house ONLY, using the old manual-book card, system.
Our new circulation system is STILL scheduled to be installed beginning Memorial Day Weekend. This means: No library cards can be issued during this migration, no HOLDs can be placed, in-house circulation only.
We do not yet know exactly how long our services will be curtailed, but we wanted to give you all a "heads-up" that circulation will be affected beginning that weekend. Keep checking here for updates...and thank you in advance for your patience.
