All ABOARD!  Newport's Dick Gassett presented a wonderful program of local railroad history. This program was entertaining for  all ages as it included history, artifacts and descriptive stories of many years of the Concord Claremont railroad.

On Saturday night ten wonderful actors invited the community to discover who murdered the loaded librarian.  The library was the scene of the crime.  The audience sampled desserts provided by the trustees while searching the library for clues to the murder.  The event raised money to purchase audio books for the library's collection.

The ballroom was packed with happy faces of children and parents alike as we all watched Robert Rivest perform the many faces and characters of  a mime .  What fun!

June 25th was the kick off of the summer reading program and the library was filled. Make sure you look at the upcoming events.  Check our website for details or come in a pick up a brochure.  Enjoy and happy reading!
