2012 has been a big year for the library, thanks to our wonderful patrons and supporters some big things have happened this year. First and foremost was becoming a joint City/County library, the voters of our county supported the library in a big way and we would like to say thank-you for that!
The community also came together to help raise money to get Overdrive Library2Go digital e-books and audiobooks we couldn’t have done this without all your generous donations and this service is now up and running. Check it out at our new library webpagewww.newrockfordndlibrary.com .
We look forward to even more new and exciting things in the coming year.
