You’re invited

to become a
part of the
library!
Everyone over the age
of 5 who lives in Greene
County is eligible for a
free library card. That
card enables you to
borrow from our
extensive collection of
books, DVDs,
audiobooks, ebooks, and
more! Plus, you have
access to request titles
from the other libraries
in the OWL consortium

But more than that, we

invite you to join us for Monday 8-6
the many classes and
events we have going on Tuesday 8-6
year-round. Most are
free, and some (like
Wednesday 8-6
children’s Storytime Thursday 8-6
Tuesdays at 10:30am)
don’t even require pre- Friday 9-5
registration.
Saturday 9-1
We hope you’ll take
advantage of all the
Sunday Closed
library has to offer,
because our goal is to
help you achieve yours!

additional proof of address to get a card for
themselves and/or minor children. You’ll also fill
out an application card, and then we’ll have you
ready to check out books with your
complimentary library card in just a few minutes!
You can also apply for a card on our website to
access ebooks and audiobooks. Then just bring in
ID and proof of address to get your physical card
when you come in.

We love reading! All sorts of reading:
whether it’s for pleasure or for research,
on paper, screens or via audio narration,
graphic novels, poetry, romance, sci-fi or
anything else. With a library card you get
access to our entire collection!
When you check out an item, you get it
for two weeks. You can usually renew it
one time, as long as no one else has
placed a hold on it. Best of all, it’s
absolutely free! (Unless you turn it in late
which accrues a fee of 25¢ per book per
day.)
We have lots of ways for library patrons
to express their creativity. From
Construction Block Parties for younger
patrons, to Crafternoons for adults,
there’s always a spirit of creativity alive at
the library. We have free public wi-fi,
computers available for patrons, and
printers/copiers that patrons can make
use of for a nominal fee (20¢ for single-
sided black and white, $1 for color), so the
resources you need to create your
masterpiece are just a library visit away!
We regularly have classes on a variety of
subjects at the library. In the past, they’ve
included individual technology sessions
and knitting classes and more. Check out
our website to see what else is coming up
or available now.
From helping you find the perfect book,
sharing a story and craft at Storytime, or
just giving you a place to read or access
wi-fi, the Library is all about connecting
you with the information, resources,
books, entertainment, and community
supports that you need to achieve
whatever your dreams are. Come share
those dreams with us. We look forward to
helping you achieve them.
