Hello, fellow bookworms and literary enthusiasts! Exciting news alert: The Friends of the Manchester District Library have just unveiled a fantastic new Free Little Library at Klager Elementary, and we couldn鈥檛 be more thrilled!
We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to the Manchester Community Schools District for graciously offering this location at Klager Elementary and for their invaluable assistance in the installation process. This Free Little Library marks a fresh start for us after repeated vandalism incidents that unfortunately led to the removal of the previous one at Chi-Bro Park. While it disheartening, we鈥檙e embracing this opportunity to spread positivity and encourage a love for reading in our community.
As we dive into March, also known as Reading Month, we鈥檙e spreading the joy of literature by giving away FREE children books! The Friends of the Manchester District Library would like to extend an invitation to any child or young person who visits the library to select a free book during the month of March.听These books can be selected from the free book cart located in the front lobby next to the check-out desk or from the Used Book Sale on the first and second floors.
The regular Used Book Sale is also available (as always!) and we鈥檝e refreshed it with some new 鈥渃hick-lit鈥 and thrillers. Hardcovers are $1 each and paperbacks, CDs, and DVDs are 50垄 each.
Any resident of the areas served by Manchester District Library can be a member of the Friends group. There is no membership fee to be part of the Friends and we meet three times per year, in January, May, and October, at the Library.听
