The Library Board of Trustees are collecting items for the Annual Silent Auction starting Monday October 18 until Friday November 12.  Donations can be such things as hand-crafted items, artwork, gift certificates, donations from businesses, etc., with a minimum value of $5.00.  They will not be accepting USED items.  New or handmade is acceptable. The bidding begins on November 15!

Our November book discussion books will be available November 1!  Read the book, Midnight at the Blackbird Cafe by Heather Webber, and post your thoughts on our Facebook event from November 16-30, 2021!  Or just read the book because we know you want to!

Come do our Rock Painting Makerspace! Come in anytime during open hours from Monday November 1 through Wednesday November 24 and paint a rock! Open to kids ages 8 through adult. (The paint markers are acrylic and do not wash off easy so sorry little ones!) Take your rock with you and leave it at someone’s door (to show kindness) or keep it and add to your garden in the spring! One rock per person, while supplies last. (The makerspace will be set up by the circulation desk.)

Shop for the library this holiday season from our giving tree starting Monday November 1- Saturday January 15, 2022!  We have several items the library needs! It’s EASY!  Grab a Christmas tag off our tree of something you would like to donate to the library.  Buy it, donate it, whatever it says and bring the tag and the item in as soon as you can!  We would like all donations turned in by January 31, 2022.

The Library will be closed to observe Veterans Day on Thursday November 11, 2021.  We will reopen Friday November 12 at 12pm.

The Morrisville Public Library is open Monday, Wednesday, Friday from 12pm-7pm, Tuesday and Thursday 10am to 7pm and Saturdays 10am-1pm. FACE COVERINGS ARE MANDATORY inside; vaccinated or not!
