(closed Monday - Friday: noon 1 p.m.)
Saturday: 1 0 a.m. - 2 p.m.
Library Expansion: Construction is under way with completion
expected in mid-April. Please be aware that there may be times that
we need to close the library with little advance notice as a safety pre
caution of people and property. We will make every effort to provide
notification of closures ifwhen possible.
Some of the Tribal Library collection has been placed in storage as
well as most of the furnishings, two of the computer stations and some of
the actual shelving. While we have remained open, services are limited
to circulations and computer use. Donations are being accepted at this
time, but they will remain in storage until construction is over and full
operations are back on track.
Tiny Tots Program: The program will be canceled until completion
of the expansion project and will resume in May.
Thank you for your patience during construction.
