Notes from Our Director: 

Here's what's new at CPL!

Starting this month, we now loan a number of specialty items:
  • Fishing poles
  • Holiday and specialty cake and cookie pans
  • Home energy loss detector
  • Metal detectors for youth and adults
Borrowing any of these items is easy -- all you need is your library card. Just stop by our front desk and we'll be happy to assist you!

We're also proud to offer a new monthly program beginning in May! Our knitting group will meet the third Wednesday of each month from 6-8 p.m. Beginners and experienced knitters are welcome! A complete list of our May programs can be found below.
