Print and Time Management To Be Discontinued 12/31
|
The service we use for print and time management on our Public Access Computer workstations is being discontinued as of the end of this month. We will switch to an honor system for paying for print-outs and monitoring fair time allowances until we move to the New Ridgefield Library this coming spring.
If you believe you may have a credit towards printing on your card, please check at the Reference Desk now about getting a refund; after 12/31 we will no longer have access to this information and will not be able to issue refunds.

| Wish List for the New Ridgefield Library Launched |
 As construction continues apace, we are turning our attention to procuring the multitude of items we will need to make the New Library function as a vibrant, efficient and comfortable building once we move in during the spring. Furniture, fixtures and equipment to support library services and operations have been ordered, and now we are seeking individuals, families and businesses to step up and help pay for these purchases.
Our new Library Wish List has just been launched. Choose from dozens of items at giving levels from $50 to $15,000. In addition to furnishings for the New Library, you may also choose to support some of our ongoing programs and collections like Books & Breakfast or downloadable e-book subscriptions. You can browse the entire list on our website.
