Maine State Park Pass Is Here!

06/01/201805/30/2018adminFYI

Thanks to a generous gift from the Friends of Maine State Parks we have received a Maine State Park Pass as a pilot library. Our pass is available for one week checkout and includes the pass, maps, and rules for park use all in one container for easy check in and checkout at our Main Circulation Desk.

You can place a hold on the pass through our online catalog system with your catalog user name and password, or call us to reserve the pass for pick up during our regular hours.

We are so grateful for this opportunity to share Maine State Parks with our residents and visitors. And of course we encourage you to check out some guidebooks from our nonfiction collection and learn more about the world we live in.

Inclusive Internship Initiative Update

05/31/201805/30/2018adminFYI / News / Youth Programs

The Bridgton Public Library has received a grant award from the Public Library Association for the Inclusive Internship Initiative, part of a nation-wide program to spark interest in librarianship as a career possibility to high school students. Bridgton Public Library is the only library in Maine to receive this award this year. We are very proud of Miss Samantha, our Youth Services Librarian who wrote the grant proposal and will be the mentor for our lucky intern.

Thank you to all who applied. Miss Samantha met many qualified youth here in our community, and the Library looks forward to welcoming our new summer intern soon.
