open house photo displayThank you to all who came to our open house! It gave us an opportunity to share our excitement for what was, what is, and what is going to be, and our appreciation for those who have generously given to make it happen. The pictures and posters are still on display and we would love for you to come in and take a look. We would also be more than happy to give you a tour of our plans for the future.

With Phase One being done, we are now turning our attention to Phase Two. Phase One was done to make Lincoln Library more patron-friendly; Phase Two is being planned with the community in mind. The annex, when finished, will provide the opportunity to hold a variety of events in a facility with a kitchen, ADA accessible bathrooms, and a large space complete with plenty of electrical outlets and adjustable lighting.

We are in the process of searching out grants that have compatible criteria with our needs for Phase Two. We will also begin an active fundraising venture in the very near future. We are excited to see this phase get rolling, but the financial challenges are real and will have to be met and overcome before we can move from plans to reality.

Come check it out, along with a book, movie, or magazine. We’ll gladly give you a mini tour if you want to stop by and use our paper shredder to shred your documents. If you need copies, or you want to send a fax, or use a computer, we can help you with that, and show you around.

So, here we go on another phase and more adventures, and as the great Greek philosopher Aristotle once said, “Adventure is worthwhile.”
