Happy Thanksgiving From The Staff Of The Cannon Libraries!

What are librarians thankful for?  We are thankful for lots of smiling faces coming through our doors, reading, faxing, photocopying, using the Internet, choosing a DVD or audiobook, listening to a story, or finding a quiet place to read in peace.  We are thankful for our funding authority, the County Commissioners who granted our request for 2 new half-time staff members which we have now hired and are training.  We are thankful for our volunteers, who have meant so much to the strength of our libraries, particularly this year with the move out and the move back in.  We are thankful for our beautiful newly expanded and remodeled library in Woodbury.  We are thankful for library patrons who feel free to suggest additions for our collections.  We are thankful for the many gift book and memorial donations we receive at both outlets.  And yes, we are thankful for patrons who return their materials before the due date, but we are also thankful for those who request renewals instead.  To all of you who have given to the libraries’ well-being during the past year with contributions large and small, we say thank you! 
Best Wishes for a very Happy Thanksgiving!  From the Staff and Volunteers of the Cannon County Library System!
