CHANGE OF LOCATION
The Adult knitting group that meets at The Green Free Library has become so popular, it has outgrown its spot in the library. Beginning Tuesday, March 20, 2012, the Adult knitters will meet next door in the Gmeiner. There is still plenty of room for new knitters to sharpen their skills, so drop by at 3:00 PM and see what the point of knitting is!

THIS WEEK AT THE LIBRARY
The Green Free Library is open Monday-Thursday from 10:00 AM until 8:00 PM and Friday & Saturday from 10:00 AM-5:00 PM. Visitors please note that all parking is "on the street", except for one handicapped access parking spot behind the library that is shared with the Gmeiner. You must have the appropriate permits displayed to park in this spot.
MONDAY
No special events are scheduled for Monday, March 18, 2012. This is the perfect time to stop in and check out books on planning a garden, or building a new deck to help enjoy the coming summer sunshine. The library has books on gardening in the traditional sense and organic for both vegetables and flowers. Herb gardens are also a tasty way to get some excercise and save money as well.
Speaking of excercise, Spring is a great time to start a new exercise program, or even a new diet. The back wall of the main room of the library holds many current titles, as well as golden oldies that always seem to come back in fashion.
TUESDAY
The BOOK STORE will be open from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM. Prices are amazing and there are many titles to choose from. Books will be re-stocked at the end of every session, so make it a habit to stop in regularly.
The Book Club will meet at 6:30 PM in the reading area of the library. This week the book to be discussed is "The Leftovers", by Tom Perrotta. This book club is for adults who enjoy reading and discussing somewhat unusual picks.
WEDNESDAY
Story Time will begin at 10:15 AM in the Children's Room. This week the theme will be Kites and Wind!
The BOOK STORE will be open from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM.
Adult knitting will meet in the library at 3:00 PM. Feel free to drop by and get some instructions, or just knit with some good company. Knitters of ll levels are welcome, and yes, talking is aloud in the library.
THURSDAY
The BOOK STORE will be open from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM.
Kids knitting will be held upstairs in the library beginning at 3:30 PM. Adult supervision is provided at all times, and knitters of any level are welcome. If you don't have your own needles, Wanda Short (facilitator) will provide beginner needles and yarn if you want to take a stab at it. Donations of yarn and knitting needles of any size are always appreciated, and will be put to good use.
FRIDAY
Friday is another quiet day with nothing extra planned for the week. Please remember that the library does close at 5:00 PM on Friday, as it has for several years. Make sure your children have a ride pick them up before, or at 5:00 PM as staff can not be responsible for leftover children.

THIS WEEK AT THE LIBRARY
The transition to the new Evergreen system is still in process. There have been a few bumps along the way, but nothing as bad as the last time we switched systems at The Green Free Library! (So far at least.)
Hopefully everyone remembered to turn their clocks ahead on Sunday, March 11. The library will be open normal hours this week. That means Monday-Thursday from 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM and Friday & Saturday from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
Tax forms are still available if you haven't completed your 2011 tax returns yet. We have several Federal forms, and some of the State forms on hand for free. Other Federal forms may be copied from a reproducible book, or printed from the Internet for 10 cents (single-sided) or 15 cents (double sided) per copy. State & local forms may also be printed from the Internet.
MONDAY
No special events are scheduled for Monday, March 12, 2012. This is a good day to come in and browse, or to get some assistance learning to access the new system from home.
TUESDAY
The BOOK STORE will be open from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM. Prices are amazing and there are many titles to choose from. Books will be re-stocked at the end of every session, so make it a habit to stop in regularly.
WEDNESDAY
Story Time will begin at 10:15 AM in the Children's Room. This week the theme will be St. Patrick's Day. Even though it's not the official holiday, better wear green just in case there is a pesky Lepruchan hiding in the book bin.
