What’s new at the Library this week? Well, you can’t come to us and we can’t come to you, but we can still connect and communicate. Not everyone reads this column and knows that our dropbox is locked, that holds have been suspended, and that due dates have been extended until July 1, so how …
Disclaimer: Look, a lot of this is about how this is a newspaper column. If you are reading this, you’re aware that this is not a newspaper. Once again, I will remind my lovely readers that these blogs are just an alternate version of the MidYork Weekly column. Due to the nature of our ever-changing …
With so many updates from the village, county, state, and federal level, one thing is for sure – change is certain.

It was announced recently that Governor Cuomo’s executive budget proposes cuts to library aid by $25 million ($5 million for general aid and $20 million for construction grant aid). Sound familiar? This exact scenario has played out (albeit with different figures) year after year, forcing library advocates to assemble in Albany and meet with their …

And just like us, they too need to visit a hospital when a band-aid (or in their case, acne cream, a sandwich bag, and sunshine) just isn’t enough. Kirsten and Felicity had two separate incidents recently, …
Okay, first off, if you are reading this before February 21 at 11 a.m., there’s still time to get raffle tickets to win the rocking chair in our entryway. Tickets are $5 and if you buy them RIGHT NOW, there’s a good chance your ticket will be on top of the drawing pile. Just sayin’. …
The goal of this week’s column is to complete it in as little time as possible in order to get more pressing work done like – finishing the state-required Annual Report by Tuesday, preparing for the Trustees meeting by Wednesday, finishing the 2020-2021 budget draft by Monday, and finding a new employee ASAP. Oh, and …
And with that, January 2020 is now a thing of the past! So what do we have to look forward to in the shortest month of the year? Here at the Hamilton Public Library, there’s plenty! For parents of young children, February means Midwinter Break from school, so what do you do with the kiddos …
