Join us for a month-long celebration of creativity and generosity. We will have all-day crafting opportunities on Saturdays with take-home to-go bags as well. Take some time to reflect and write in our Writer’s Cafe on Saturdays. Click here for our calendar and descriptions for each event: Bridgton Public Library Calendar

We will be hosting a month-long cookie-cutter and recipe swap. Bring in a cookie-cutter with your favorite recipe attached and swap it for a new cookie-cutter and recipe for you to try at home. Recipe cards available at the Main Circulation desk.

We will be wrapping up our Community Read 2021 challenge, please sign up online or at the circulation desks in the month of December and help us reach our goal of 1,000 books in 2021. Anyone registered will have their name entered into a drawing for the grand prize, a $100 gift card from Bridgton Books. If you’ve registered for any of our Reading Challenges this year you will automatically be entered. The winner will be drawn on January 4th, so enter today and have your reading count!

And looking forward to 2022 we will have more Reading Challenges, drop-in workshops, and To-Go bags ready for you. Let us know what else you would like to see. Our Suggestion form is always available on our website and our staff is always listening at the circulation desks.

 

Stay safe and well. We look forward to seeing you soon!

Just a little update

Thank you to everyone who has been so patient while our building has been under some construction. Our elevator update is still in progress and our meeting room is still unavailable to the public while the project continues. Please consider giving us a call or using the doorbell by the Church Street door and we will bring books to you if stairs are uncomfortable.

Our Thankful Raffle continues through Tuesday, November 30th. We will draw 20 winners on Wednesday, December 1st and give the winners a call. This year we added a Reading Challenge as well, offering more people the chance for more tickets for reading in November.

We will be closed on Friday, November 26th but open on Saturday, November 27th. We have to-go activity bags to get you through the long weekend, pick them up on Wednesday or Friday to keep the kids engaged and learning.

We’re getting ready for a month-long celebration of creativity and generosity in december. We will have all-day crafting opportunities on Saturdays with take-home to-go bags as well. Take some time to reflect and write in our Writer’s Cafe. Check out some new cookbooks and crafting books for making something beautiful for a loved one. Happy Holidays!

It has been a very different kind of year but we are grateful for every day here at the library. Stay well and safe, and we look forward to seeing you soon.
