Library Tree Filled with Gifts it Wants

by Barbara Coger, Library Director

Hamilton Public Library’s annual Wish Tree is now on display. There are book titles and magazine subscriptions that may be purchased as a donation to the library's collection. Each will have a special bookplate and donors have the first-read option. This is an opportunity for you to honor someone special or to remember loved ones.

As fundraisers, the library is also selling counted cross stitch holiday note cards, hand crafted earrings by Susan Weitz, and new and gently used videos.

There will soon be a Barnes & Noble fundraiser for the Mid-York Library System. A percentage of the sales will be used for the purchase of new ebooks. You may participate at the New Hartford store, Sunday, Dec. 4, or online between Dec. 4 and Dec. 11. The library has vouchers at the circulation desk with the Bookfair ID 10579746 which will be needed at checkout.

There will only be two scheduled story times in December. On Dec. 6, guest story teller Joan Ford and Barb Coger will share holiday stories and then all will have a chance to sing some holiday songs.

Diane Needham and Santa will be the guest storytellers for Story Time on Dec. 13. Story Time starts at 10:30 a.m. Babies and toddlers meet with Barb Coger in the Story Room while older preschoolers meet in the Community Room.

The library will be collecting items for the Interfaith Christmas project until Dec. 15.

The library is usually open Monday-Friday, 10 am – 7 pm, and Saturday, 10 am – 1 pm. Please call the library, (315) 824-3060, during these hours for assistance. The book drop on Broad Street is always open for your convenience. Check the library’s Facebook page for up-to-date information about programs and special events.
