The Library will be closed until Monday January 3, 2011 for the winter holidays.  We look forward to serving your every need in 2011!

We are holding a canned food drive starting Monday, January 3 through Monday, February 28 to benefit the Morrisville Food Pantry!!!  Please help us show our support to this local program by donating a non-perishable canned food item.  There is a catch!  If you owe fines at the library we are going to help you out!  For every item you donate, we will take $1 off your outstanding fines.  So if you donate 20 items, we will take $20 off your account!  This is for the entire months of January and February…so clean that account up by the end of February and start the New Year off right!
