Bring your brown bag lunch, needles and yarn to the Gilmer County Library. Already know how to knit, come for the fun! It’s OK if can’t come to all the meetings. If knitting, bring #8 needles and yarn of any color. If crocheting, bring G or H hooks and Peaches & Cream cotton yarn of any color. This is a “drop in when you can” event.

The Friends of the Library Bookshelf
Calling all collectors! The Bookshelf has a large selection of reference books for collectors this week, covering everything from teddy bears to rare coins.

Take a look at the “last chance” shelves where our inventory of half-priced books is refreshed weekly. You can put your payment for these books in the donations box if the Bookshelf is closed.

Bookshelf hours are from 10:30-5:00 on weekdays and from noon-2:00 on Saturdays
