The Milford Memorial Library will be closed to walk-in traffic a little while longer. The library staff and board have been working on getting new carpet for the library! This week the second half of the library will get carpet. If you peak into the library you may get to see a glimpse of the new carpet. Since this is a very large job we don’t plan on opening until after it is completed. We will still have our drive-up window available during this project.
An open meeting of the Board of Trustees for Milford Memorial Library is at 5:30 p.m. on Wednesday, October 7, in the Milford Community Center. The agenda on MML’s website and front bulletin board at least 24 hours in advance of the meeting. The public is welcome to join.
Oh snap! Registration for MML’s Young Adult Subscription Box- Back to the 90’s is open! This box will be all that and a bag of chips with stellar activities and crafts. It will also include da’ bomb recommendations for 90’s movies, TV shows, books, and a 90’s playlist that will have you gettin’ jiggy with it. But wait there’s more, a 90’s inspired recipe your mama will love is also included. As if you’d want to miss out, call and pre-register. All materials are provided by the library. Dude, you can bounce by Wednesday, October 7, through Wednesday, October 28, during normal drive-up hours.

Milford Memorial Library: Youth Corner
October is right around the corner, and Milford Memorial Library is still busy planning programs for the kiddos. There will be two opportunities for Grab and Go Bags and Books. The first one will run from October 5-16, and the theme will be leaves. The second one will run from October 19-30, and the theme will be pumpkins. Since the bags were so popular last round, Miss Becca will make 30 of them. Also, there will be another Afterschool Sidewalk Shenanigans at 3:30 P.M. on Thursday, October 8. We will be playing Halloween BINGO outside in the east parking lot.
Lastly, if you have any questions or need any books from Miss Becca, please feel free to give her a call or send an email (338-4643, beccas@milford.lib.ia.us).
