Holiday greetings from City Librarian,

Warmest thoughts and best wishes for a wonderful holiday and a very Happy New Year! As we look forward to the new year ahead, we also look back to the library's 2011 highlights.

We accomplished a lot this year and hope you have been enjoying:

* our redesigned, user-friendly website

* our new eBooks and eAudiobooks collections.

* Operation Welcome Home- our services which help veterans find health and employment resources

* Paws for Reading with Murphy the Therapy Dog

* Review Crew where teens can earn community service credit from the comfort of their bed just by writing reviews of their favorite books!

And that's just the beginning of the list!
Read more about the new services we unveiled in 2011.
