NEW FRIENDS FUNDRAISER:  QUILT RAFFLE.  The 88 X 75 quilt donated by Hancock County Quilters to benefit the Ellsworth Public Library was won byWinnie Coleman of Ellsworth.  To raise funds we  raffled off the quilt with a net profit of $681.  Funds will be used for Youth and Adult Programing throughout the year.   Thank you to all who bought tickets and to the Library Staff who sold the majority of the tickets at the circulation desk.

BOOK SALES:   If you need a book and cannot wait till the next sale, please check out our book sale rack next to the circulation desk, a larger rack means an expanded selection of books are available for purchase whenever the library is open, books at the low price of $1.00 or less.     Donations of books in good condition are always welcome; please just leave them at the Library during normal hours.

Welcome Friends!

The Friends of the Ellsworth Public Library are community members working on behalf of the library to raise funds and increase community involvement in the library.

Volunteer

Volunteers always have a splendid time at the book sale. Thank You to all who participated in these events because through your participation we raise funding for the many programs not funded by the city.  If you can volunteer but were not called please leave a name and phone number at the circulation desk or get it touch with Melanie Zador.

Program Schedule:

The Summer programming is on-going and it is good to know we have made the 2017 funding available to the library.  New offerings are posted in the attached brochures, Youth YOUTH brochure 2017.docx, and Adult Adult 2017 - Trifold - Build a Better World - SRP.pdf  and on the Library web-site/Facebook Page.  Please remember this quality programming is only available and free because your donations made it happen.  In case of inclement weather Library closures will be posted on their Web-site and Facebook page.
