Thank you to all the Summer Readers who participated this year.  Also, The Brumback Library appreciates our sponsors for their donations

We are excited to share the many changes taking place at The Brumback Library; including the physical space as well as electronic additions.  We have recently launched our new website that was months in the making.  Take time to navigate the links and become familiar with all the updated information.

The Brumback Library is delighted to announce the resurgence of our volunteer group, The Friends of the Library.

This group is currently helping with re-organizing materials, shelving new books, and creating new spaces for all of our patrons, from toddlers to seniors.

We are always looking for more volunteers and welcome contact through a phone call or a personal visit.

Our Best Seller and Book Club Nook features current books listed on The New York Times Best Seller List as well as choices from Good Morning America,  Amazon, Jenna, Oprah, and Reese.  It is located on the main floor of the library.  We ask that local book clubs submit a list for their current and future monthly choices.    Please contact us at least a month in advance so we can provide books for each of your members.  

Libby is a free app where you can enjoy ebooks, digital audiobooks, and magazines on your tablet, phone or other electronic devices. You can stream titles with Wi-Fi or mobile data, or download them for offline use and read anytime, anywhere. All you need to get started is a library card.  Visit the link below (click on the picture) to learn how to get started with Libby.
