Westerlo Library Notes for Tuesday, December 30, 2014

Happy New Year!

The Westerlo Public Library will be back to our regular hours on Friday and Saturday, Jan. 2 and 3, after being closed for New Year’s Day.

Grant award

We are very proud to announce that the Preservation League of New York has awarded the library $8,400 to prepare a Historic Structures Report for our building. The library was one of 15 organizations throughout the state to receive funding from the Preserve New York grant program. 

The Report that we produce with this grant will allow us to document the historic development of our building, assess its current condition, and plan for the challenges of meeting modern needs in a historic facility.  The project will be completed over the next year by historic preservation architects Mark Thaler and David Coe.

After school

Join Miss Lee on Monday afternoons from 3:30 to 4:30 p.m. for homework help, games, crafts, puzzles, magic, music, and a lot more. Programs will also include storytelling, hands-on demonstrations, and visits from special guests.
