WILD WELLSBORO WEATHER

Look what I found behind The Green Free Library when I came to work today! For the record, it is Tuesday, October 12, 2010, and way too early for snow! Even here in Tioga County, PA.

Though if you think about it, there are ony 74 days until CHRISTMAS!!!!;)

NEW DISPLAY FOR DECEMBER

Come to The Green Free Library this month to see the adorable dolls on display for the month of December. Keeping with the Dickens tradition, Ruth Rawson of Wellsboro has been kind enough to let us display her collection of dolls sporting hand crocheted clothing from the era. St. Nick also makes an appearance, along with one of his reindeer dressed for the season in a red & white crocheted gown with lace.

If seeing the displays gets your own creative juices flowing, the library has all of its Christmas craft books on display to tempt you. Also several Christmas movies, music, novels, cookbooks, and songbooks are also available, so make a list and check it twice, the season is upon us.

The library will be closed December 24, 25, 26, and 27. It will Re-open on December 28 at 10:00 AM. The bookdrop is open while the library is closed if you forgot to return books, but you will definitely be put on the naughty list if you put DVD's, VHS tapes or any audio material in the bookdrop!
