In Memory

We are sad at the loss of Marian Shields, a Piermont Library Trustee of 26 years. She will be remembered as a giving and thoughtful friend and co-Trustee.

Automating with Open Soruce

Note from Mary White of Howe Library:
Howe Library is pleased to report that we can now announce the name of the third library joining the Howe/Evergreen Project. The board of trustees at the Piermont Public Library voted to join our open-source system. Piermont, owning approximately 11,000 volumes, has never been automated and will start their migration work in the fall of 2012, after we have helped Meriden Library (Meriden, NH) and Philip Read Memorial Library (Plainfield, NH) go-live in the summer of 2012.
Please join me in congratulating Piermont’s director, Margaret Ladd, for her efforts in making this exciting venture a reality.

Summer Reading Program

Hi Summer Readers! We have 40 members. Hope you are reading books you enjoy this summer. Round one of prizes: come in for your tennis shoe keychain for your school bookbag. (NOTE: These are awarded to older students as they have small parts.) Ice cream certificates will be awarded starting August 4th. T-shirts for our prolific readers will follow the second week in August at the conclusion of our SRP.

Ancestry Research / Genealogy

Come to the library to research your ancestors. FREE! We have joined a NH State Library consortium providing access to Ancestry.com to all our patrons. This is a new In-library program. Come try it out.
