THIS WEEK AT THE LIBRARY

Thanksgiving is over and the Christmas Season is in full swing. Stop at the library and check out some Christmas-themed fiction, or try your hand at a new Christmas craft or cookie recipe from one of our many books. Kids will find old favorites as well as new Christmas stories to get them in the holiday mood too!


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.
