Continuing the Crook County News Since 1884
We are still doing curbside and delivery if you would prefer not to come inside. The statewide mask mandate has ended, but if you want to wear a mask in the library, we have masks available. Children under 13 MUST be accompanied by an adult. Two computers are available for adults. Teen and children’s computers are not available. We will start allowing teens and children to use the computers and kid’s iPads on April 1. The Meeting Room is now open for meetings, parties, etc. Please call the library for more information and availability. Thanks to the generosity of Les Fullerton’s family, we now have the Les Fullerton Memorial that will be paying for InterLibrary Loan requests, as long as the money lasts. If you would like to contribute to this memorial to keep InterLibrary Loans free for our patrons, please let us know.
Displays: In anticipation of Easter, we have Joanne Moore’s egg collection on display.
