Join us at 7pm, August 22, 2013 (tonight!) for the ribbon cutting ceremony for our new patio.  Immediately following, we will host a cookout for volunteers.

I’m excited to announce that the Overdrive Digital Bookmobile will be visiting Concord on Wednesday, August 28th from 10am-4pm

A fun activity for kids to learn about new forms of reading, or if you want to check it out for yourself. Let me know if you visit!

Due to a staff illness, today’s craft time has been cancelled and we will be closing at 5pm.  We apologize for the inconvenience.

The next meeting of the Allenstown Public Library Board of Trustees will be August 22, 2013 at 1pm at the Library.  The 2014 budget will be discussed.

After proposing the project, we were lucky enough to be chosen as the recipient site of the 2013 Concord, NH Lowe’s Heroes Employee Volunteer project.  Check out our new garden and patio “before” and “in process” photos!

The Library Board of Trustees have adjusted the library’s schedule as follows:

• Tuesday 10am-6pm
• Wednesday 10am-3pm
• Thursday 10am-6pm

• Saturday 10am-3pm

This schedule takes effect August 6, 2013.

Do you use Goodreads?  Goodreads.com is a “social cataloging” site.  After creating a free account, you can keep track of books you’ve read (and your reviews of them) and books you want to read in the future.  You can also find out what your friends are reading and their review of books.  It’s a great way to learn about books and find out what to read next.

The library now has a Goodreads account.  Find us at username Allenstown Public or click here for an invite

On the Library’s page you’ll be able to see the library’s new titles along with reviews from library staff.  We look forward to friending you!

The next meeting of the library trustees will be held on July 25, 2013 at 2pm at the Allenstown Public Library.  All are invited to attend.
