Welcome to October, 2024 

 

Update, October 7, 2024

The Melcher-Dallas Public Library will be closed on October 10, 2024. 

I am sorry for any inconvenience this may create.

 

Come Craft with Me! 

Mark your calendars for a Craft Night at the Library!  We are planning to make some fall pumpkin decorations!

We will be offering you a choice of day and time!  If you prefer to come in the afternoon, stop in on  October 11th , between 1-3 p.m.  If evening is better for you, stop in on October 16th, between 6-8 p.m. 

This is a free event, but if you have some fall foliage or other decorations you would like to add to your pumpkin, please feel free to bring them along!

 

Recommending Reading!

I really enjoyed a book by Marie Force, and I think you would too! 

The book is entitled In the Air Tonight and is ready for your reading pleasure!

 

 

 I am still looking to hire an assistant. 

If you are interested, or know of someone who is interested in the position, please contact me!  641-947-6700
