Beginning in February, we will be offering new days and times for story-times here at the library. On the second and fourth Tuesday of the month, we will have a “lap-sit” program for parents and children 6-18 months of age. On the first and third Friday of the month we will have a toddler story-time for children ages 18-36 months. Both programs will begin at 10:30am and last about 30 minutes. No reservations are necessary and parents and children residing outside Waterford are also welcome. For more information please call Liz Liddington at the library.

Due to repairs being made to the interior of the library this evening, the library will close today at 5pm, instead of our usual 6pm closing. We apologize in advance for any inconvenience this may cause. We will reopen at our usual time, 9am tomorrow.

That’s tonight! Showtime as always is 6pm and admission is free.

As has happened in previous years, the supply of  tax forms that the library makes available to customers is rapidly being depleted. This is due to people taking multiple copies of certain forms. We respectfully ask that you only take what you need. You are welcome to make copies of forms to practice on or to help relatives and neighbors complete the process. The supply is finite and when we run out, there will not be anymore. We appreciate your consideration.

All of this is being provided free of charge.

Why yes, thank you for noticing! The library’s website is undergoing a refresh, with more of an emphasis on our blog! The latest blog postings will now be front and center. There are links to our Facebook and Youtube pages as well. But the biggest news has to do with something you won’t see until you check us out with your smartphone! Our website should now fully functional on your phone’s browser!
