Schoharie Library Notes for Wednesday, April 7, 2021
The Schoharie Free Library has recently expanded its Saturday hours from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m.; we’re now open to visitors a total of 35 hours a week: Monday, Tuesday, and Friday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.; Thursday from noon to 7 p.m.; and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
National Library Week is April 4-10, which makes this week a great time to sign up for a library card if you don’t already have one. Kids aged 5-15 can get a juvenile card; anyone over 16 living in the Schoharie School District is eligible for an adult card. To sign up for a free library card, just come to the library with a copy of your picture ID and a piece of mail sent to your current address.
Puzzle Swap
Our Puzzle Swap continues this week and we’re still accepting donations of puzzles through Saturday, April 10. For every puzzle you bring in, you can take one home from the big display in the library.
