Finders Keepers

Surprise! The library is leaving books in plastic bags outside near popular places. We call it Finders Keepers - because you know the rules of that - you find it - you keep it. That's right a book to keep is all yours if you find one of Finder's Keepers bags.

Art Share Because we Care

12/14/2020

 
​Do you or your kids like to color, paint or draw? We are soliciting artwork drawn on our special handouts for our new Art Share Because We Care initiative.  Turn in your artwork to us and we will send it to a Senior in need of a pick-me-up in Plainville. Many Seniors in this time of COVID are struggling with feeling alone and this is just one way we, as a community, can let them know we are thinking about them. You can even nominate people you know (not just Seniors) who might need an Art Share Because We Care envelope in the mail to brighten their day. Nominations are accepted at the Plainville Public Library circulation desk. Please turn in your artwork on our special handout available online or at the library, or your own paper no bigger than 8 ½ x 11”, so we can fit it in a regular envelope.  Sheet to Print at Home

We will be closed for the Thanksgiving Holiday from Thursday, November 26 through Sunday, November 30. We are using this time to give a needed PAUSE for our staff and to do some deep cleaning at the library.
