“Do Nut” forget Mom this Mother’s Day! We are selling Krispy Kreme donuts and coffees! See any board trustee or stop in and place your order (and pay) today! Orders must be placed by this Friday April 30. Orders will be in on Friday May 7, 2021. If you ordered from a trustee, they will contact you; if from the library, stop in between 12pm-7pm to get yours!
MARK YOUR CALENDARS! We are partnering with Madison County 4-H Youth Development and hatching baby chicks again this year! The eggs are in the incubator! Join us with Facebook Live events as we do our first Candle Event on April 30 at 11am, with Candle Event #2 on May 7 at 11am, and then the hatching event the weekend of May 14th! During the hatching we will be Facebook Live the entire time (technology permitting) and we will restart the feed every 4 hours, 24 hours a day until the chicks are hatched! Then view our Hatched Cam after to see the baby chicks as they get used to their new surroundings. Depending on where we are with COVID numbers, we may allow viewings of the babies by appointment so check back!
Join us Wednesday evenings for Classics with Chelle at 7:00pm, as our Library Manager, Michelle Rounds, reads on Facebook Live a classic book! Fun for kids and adults! We started a new book on April 14, Beverly Cleary’s The Mouse and the Motorcycle!
We have now stopped quarantining our materials like many others of the Mid York Library System. So what does this mean for our services? Masks remain mandatory even with a full vaccination. So does hand sanitizing when entering the library. Returned items will come off our accounts much faster so it will be easier to keep track of things! Our book drop in the circulation desk is now open and once our front porch repair is finished, our outside book drop will be back open for after hour drop offs! We are keeping the return bin in the main entry for the time being for people who want to drop and go still!
The Morrisville Public Library is open Monday through Friday from 12pm-7pm. FACE COVERINGS ARE REQUIRED, only 7 people total will be allowed in at one time. MAKE SURE TO USE THE HAND SANITIZER UPON ENTRANCE (as required)! The library staff reserves the right to hurry you along.
