Holiday Closing

Just as a reminder, the library will be closed Saturday, May 28 for Memorial Day Weekend. We will reopen Tuesday morning at 9:30.

Trophy pictures

The Red Sox trophy has been and gone, and now all we have are the memories... and the photos. Check them out on our site at: http://greenfieldpubliclibrary.org/redsox.html

We hope you had a good time. We did, and so did the over 600 people who visited the library to catch a glimpse of history.

Podcasting

For those who didn't hear it, Morning Edition's technology report had a segment this morning on podcasting (audio weblogs). The Greenfield Public Library was ahead of the loop on this one. We added a link to podcastalley on April 28th! Want to hear what all the fuss is about? Check out the link to the story, listen, and learn.

GPL Toolbar

Want to have access to your library from your desktop? Download the GPL toolbar and keep the library at your fingertips.

Check to see if something you are browsing is available in the catalog, renew items, and access the state databases anytime you're online. It's free, it's convenient, and it's provided to you from us... your public library.

Book Sale!

It's Book Sale time again. Time to come out and show your support for the Friends of the Greenfield Public Library by buying a book... or buying a lot of books! The Spring Book Sale starts Thursday, May 19 and runs through Saturday, May 21.

Thursday's sale hours will be from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. and will be for Friends of the Library only. The good news is that you can become a Friend at the door by making a donation to the Friends in any amount! Friday, the sale will be open from 9:30 - 5:00 and Saturday from 9:30 - 2:00.

One thing to be aware of: the library closes at 5:00 on Thursday so you will need to enter through the library's back door (by the fire station) to get to the Book Sale's Opening Night.

We hope to see you here!
