We have had such a beautiful fall and now we are ready for the holiday season. This is the last month for our fall drink specials in the Joyful Cup – the pumpkin spice lattes are delicious, so be sure to get yours before they’re gone for the year. The winter menu is coming. You can stop into the library or use the convenient pickup window. Did you know you can use the pickup window for holds as well? If you can’t give us a call, just push the doorbell and we can bring your holds to you. We also offer curbside pickup for holds if you need to stay in your vehicle.
