Online Catalog Update

We are starting a new library consortium! The Chickadee Library Consortium, serving Raymond, Casco, Naples, Bridgton, and Harrison, is launching next week. We will be merging our online catalogs this upcoming weekend, Friday, 10/13 through Monday, 10/16. Our online catalog will be unavailable during this update. 

Bridgton Public Library will be open our regular hours, Friday 9am-5pm and Saturday 9am-3pm. We will be able to check items in and out. We will not be able to access any other account information during this update.

Here is a flyer with all of the things you need to know to get started.

Nonprofit Learning Community

Nonprofit Learning Community

Join us for a monthly meeting this Thursday, October 12, 1-2 pm. Get to know other nonprofit leaders in our community, and connect with resources to support your work. 

Bridgton Public Library has received a grant from the Maine Community Foundation Community Building Program to help local nonprofits find federal and state grant opportunities, write grants, improve financial management, cultivate donors, develop social media and advertising strategies, receive technology training, and provide workforce development for existing employees.

Please email me at bridgtonlibrary@gmail.com for a zoom link for our fall introductory meeting. We have all had a busy summer, and this is an excellent opportunity to take a breath and start looking ahead with perhaps some new local partners and support.
