Westerlo Library Notes for Wednesday, October 9, 2019
We appreciate your patience as we continue the parking-lot project. The Westerlo Library looks forward to having a smooth, paved parking lot very soon.
Please check our website and Facebook page for a notice that the library will be closed for one day during the actually paving. As soon as we know that day we will publish it.
Technology Walk-In Wednesdays

Artists’ Group
The Artists Group will meet Tuesday, Oct. 15, from 2:15 to 4 p.m. This group provides its members an opportunity to make art together in a spirit of fun and support.
