We would like to send out a huge thank you out to everyone that visited our library in September to get a new library card - we ended up with 86 new library card holders last month, which was fantastic!
We also want to thank everyone that used their already existing card and participated in our raffle basket contest - that was so much fun, too - pictured here are two of the lucky Circulation Department raffle basket winners!
We can't wait until Library Card Sign-up Month next September for more fun and prizes 🎉❤📚

We so enjoyed the ORMACO performance by Mark Alan Wade this past week and hope that if you attended the concert that you did as well! Mark is incredibly musically talented, and he taught us about the international history of the hammered dulcimer in addition to playing beautiful music for the audience.
We asked Jane, the Artistic Operations Director for ORMACO, if she would pose for a picture with her brand new Canal Fulton Public Library card this week after the concert and she said yes! We cherish our programming partnerships with community groups like ORMACO as we strive to provide exceptional programming for all ages.
