Ottumwa Public Library

There are some changes coming to the library. Throughout the remainder of 2009 and spring 2010 the Ottumwa Public Library will be making a transformation. Thanks to several generous estates, the library will be able to renovate. To give you a sneak peek, we will be taking out an upstairs wall and putting up a wall downstairs in the meeting room. There will be a brand new teen area and genealogy area, as well as new furnishings and a spiffy new look for our public to enjoy. The Reference/Computer area will all be changed with the ability to put in a lot more computers. Stay tuned and we will keep you posted on the renovations as they take place. (There may be a little dust along the way but it will all be worth it in the end!)

March is the month when it can rain or it can snow, but most of all the wind will blow.  So drift on in for more storytime antics. Join Jenna on Fridays in March for some great stories and fun crafts.
