Each month, in print or online, be sure to read about all the great events going on in our hometown libraries. September's focus is on the Noble Public Library & our Louisa May Alcott: The Woman Behind Little Women series. October will feature our study aids & November will be our Annual Report.

So watch online & the front lobby of your hometown library for the most recent WORD!

Louisa May Alcott
