The Unadilla Community Library would like to thank
Dean & Donna Speth for giving the Library a huge collection
of books by some of the patron's favorite authors. They are
currently being processed and will be on the shelves soon.
Peggy Leefers reminds us that the author for January is
Debbie Macomber and they have a large selection of her books.
New children's books include: "Cloudy with Meatballs", "Oh the
Places You'll Go", "Fancy Nancy and the Fabulous Fashion
Boutique", Christian the Lion", "The Giving Tree", and
"Where the Sidewalk Ends" (a book of poems and drawings
by Shel Silverstein.)
Anyone wishing to donate items for the flea market table
fundraiser for Groundhog Day can leave their items at the
Library during open hours or the Village Office.
