Dear Friends,
We hope you are enjoying the April showers! Hillsborough is certainly pretty right now with all the fresh blooms.
Book Sale Update
We did it again! Last week’s book sale was another great success. Thanks to all of you who donated used books, shopped, or volunteered to work at the sale! We couldn’t have done it without you. Thanks especially to Friends board member Diane Decker, who heads up the sales. It’s a lot of hard work and we are lucky to have her at the helm!
Sensory Friendly Browsing Hour
Did you know that our library now offers a sensory friendly browsing hour for neurodivergent youth and their families? Hooray!
