Online Library Survey still available
Help us improve our services! Click here to access our 2013 Joint Library Survey online. We want to hear from as many community members as possible, even if you aren't a current library user. Copies of the survey are also available at the library, the Village Hall, Albany School District Office, and Talmer Bank starting Monday, February 25th.
Children's Literacy Programs

At milestones of 250, 500, 750 books they receive incentive prizes upon turning in their reading records. At program completion they receive a special gift and a certificate.
