No Book Collection for April

The Friends of KML book collection, normally held the first Saturday of each month, will be put on hold until the library is open. Save your books. Hopefully we’ll be back collecting soon.

“Nothing to Fear”


When I tell people that I grew up in the Bahamas, I’m often asked “What are you doing up here?” Naturally, this conjures images of sunny beaches and blue waters.

Friends Book Collection Cancelled for February

The Friends of the Library are sorry to announce that the February 1st book collection is cancelled because our storage space at 230c Mountain Road is full. We are so grateful for all of the wonderful donations that we have received thus far, and hope that those of you who planned to donate books will save them until we have additional storage space. We need to find space to store donated books so that we can resume our monthly book collections soon, hopefully on March 7. If you have or know someone who has a clean, dry, accessible (few or no stairs) space about 8’ x 10’ or larger, we would love to hear from you. Without storage space, we are effectively done collecting for this year, so PLEASE HELP!!!

Let’s Get Acquainted

Hello old friends and welcome to my new acquaintances! Some of you may remember me from three or more decades ago when I was employed at the Kent Memorial Library.
