Council/Library Meeting

The mayor, council, and Library Board of Trustees will be holding a joint public Zoom meeting during the regulary scheduled meeting of the mayor and council on Monday, September 28, at 7 PM. The purpose of this meeting is to gain input from residents about the services provided by the library and identify additional opportunities for the library to better serve the community. Please join us for this discussion.

If you are unable to attend the meeting please feel free to send us your ideas, comments, and suggestions via
circ-wha@mainlib.org or write us a letter and send it to town hall. We will be able to read your ideas into the record. After the meeting, we plan on sending out an online survey based on the feedback we receive. For additional information, please call the library. Instructions for joining the meeting are available on the Borough of Wharton's website.
