As many have noticed, our software to register for Library programs and museum passes is down. The vendor assures us the problems will be resolved shortly. While we wait for a resolution, please contact the library (508-646-2829), and we will record your registrations and museum pass requests the old-fashioned way, by hand . We apologize for the inconvenience and hope the matter will be resolved soon.
Note: The library is open most Saturdays throughout the year,
with the exception of summer holiday weekends.

Creature Keeper Quest Cards!
6/22/24-8/13/24
Complete one hour of reading and receive a complete set of griffin themed cards from the library's very own Creature Keeper Quest game! Each set includes a griffin egg, a child griffin and an adult griffin of the same theme.
For every hour of reading you complete, you can collect a new set of griffin cards with a different theme. See?
Griffin sets will be earned in a predetermined specific order. Please do not request sets out of order.
What is a griffin?
The griffin, griffon, or gryphon is a legendary creature with the body, tail, and back legs of a lion, and the head and wings of an eagle with its talons on the front legs.
Summer Readers are asked to complete 10 hours of reading by August 13th. When you complete 10 hours of reading, you receive a free book and two tickets for our toy raffle. You can also add your name to our wall of readers! You should have 30 cards at this point and you will be ready to start playing card games! For those who wish to continue collecting griffin sets...keep tracking your reading! We have 50 different griffin sets to collect! For every additional five hours of reading that you complete, you can collect another ticket for our toy raffle.
If you are a livin' like a griffin and wish to read more than 50 hours... you can collect our special edition cards. Each themed griffin set has a bonus teenage card! For each hour of reading above 50 hours, you can collect one bonus teenage card from your previously collected sets. Bonus cards will be earned in the same order as the first 50 sets.
If you make it to 100 hours, you will have earned the entire collection of griffin cards from our Creature Keeper Quest game. Congratulations! Stay tuned for next year when we will be collecting a wide variety of new
characters!
Where's Waldo Griffin? If you are taking a book home from the library, a librarian just might tuck a Waldo card into your book before you leave!
Check those books when you get home!
*We no longer have access to the Beanstalk tracking program as we did in previous years. We have decided to not do competative reading this year. We hope that these new reading incentives will have you inspired!
