BALLOT RESULTS

Thank you to everyone who turned out in support of the library.  We are very pleased to announce that our request of an additional $3,000 was approved by 72%!  It means a great deal to us that the people of Morristown support the library's mission of providing access to the world of information, social and cultural ideas to the community.  Be sure to check out our calendar for upcoming events!

 

GARDEN SHARE

So you've heard of a Cookie Exchange, right?  Well, this is a Plant Exchange!  Library Trustee Lisa Ditta came up with this fabulous idea when she was doing her Spring yardwork.  She has extra plants to offer, and maybe you do as well.  If so, please bring your extra plants that you would be interested in trading to the library in labeled containers.  We'll have the picnic table out front for you to leave them.  If you bring two plants you are welcome to take two of someone elses, just like a cookie exchange.  What a great idea, Lisa!
