Census 2020…It’s Your Duty

As you know the U.S. 2020 Census is still going on. What you didn’t know is that Warrensburg/Thurman is way behind on this important task (As of 7/19/2020: Thurman Response Rate: 45.3%; Warrensburg Response Rate: 49.9%). There is $800 Billion that is distributed to states, counties and towns, but unless there is an accurate count of the people who live here, we WILL NOT get the funds we are entitled to. This includes support for roads, schools, first responders, etc. Hit the link below and do your part for our area:

I will be nagging you from now on…consider it my new hobby!

Patrons can start returning all borrowed material to the library starting tomorrow, Wednesday, July 8th. Please put all returned items into the Drop Box located at the Library Avenue entrance. All material will be quarantined for 72 hours before being checked in, BUT, NO late charges will apply. We will be calling patrons to set up an appointment to pick up any materials they may have ordered, before the shut down, this week. If you would like to request materials, call us at 518-623-3011 starting Monday, July 13th. REMEMBER, you can only order books, DVDs, etc. from our collection for the time being. You may also go to the on-line catalog by going to icon at the top of this page that says, “Books, DVDs and more” and click on the link below. This will bring you to the catalog and sign in using your Library Card barcode number as your username and your password is the last 4 digits of your home phone number. Once you’re in you can order from our collection. If you have any problems, give us a call!
