What's Happening

In the spirit of Earth Day, we are looking to our community to help clean up the library's park for the upcoming season. Saturday, April 26th from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm, any help is very much appreciated. Please don't forget your work gloves.
Old-growth forests are relatively rare in New Hampshire. This presentation on April 30th at 6:00 pm in the Ham Room, will describe how to recognize the unique physical characteristics, important ecological attributes, and wildlife that favor such forests, and their importance as carbon reserves to help cool our planet. We will finish with a visual tour of several of the finest old-growth forests across our state, where ancient trees are a source of awe and inspiration.
Join us on April 28th at 6:30 PM in the Ham Room to celebrate National Poetry Month with local poet Courtney Peare and her debut collection, "Bolton Strid." Experience themes of grief and acceptance through her powerful readings, followed by a Q&A and book signing. Don't miss this chance to connect with poetry! Copies of "Bolton Strid" will be available for purchase.
