Friends are accepting book donations
The Friends of NAPL are currently accepting book donations for their big September sale. Please consider donating your gently used hardback and paperback books in fiction, non-fiction, travel, biography, large print and other subject areas. We will also take donations of children’s books, DVDs, music in CD format and books in CD format. We cannot accept textbooks, Readers Digest condensed books, encyclopedias, out-dated medical books, VHS or cassette tapes. We will take current magazines in excellent condition for our magazine exchange. Although we appreciate your generosity, please make sure your books are in the best condition. Accepting mildewed books endangeres our library collection. Audio-visual items that don’t work properly and musty, damaged books are expensive to recycle and defeat the purpose of fund-raising for your community library. Mark your calendars for the September 26 and 27 book sale. We hope to see you all there.
Berkshire Works location change
Please note that Berkshire Works has relocated to North Adams City Hall (10 Main St) on Fridays from 9 to noon and at the Adams Council on Aging (3 Hoosac St) on Mondays 9 to noon.
FREE — 4H Babysitting Class
Pick up some great safety tips and pointers for taking care of young children with the 4H Babysitting Class. Open to children ages 12 and older. Please pre-register in the Youth Services Dept. at the library by April 18. Classes run April 22 to 25 at 2:30 and are approximately 2 hours long. Get ready for some great summer earnings.
