2010 ANNUAL REPORT ENFIELD, NEW ... - Town of Enfield

library staff is available to explain the details of the service for those who wish to
learn more.
A weekly story time for our youngest children was introduced in
February and has been well received. This program provides appropriate stories,
rhymes, music and other activities to entertain and educate children ages two to
five years old. This new story-time program is offered on Mondays from 1:30pm
to 2:00 pm.
The on-going summer reading program and story-time for older children
held on each Wednesday, under the direction of Bonnie McAlister, concluded the
year with a special program, held in the Enfield Community Building, and
presented by Diane Kordas of Romper, Rhythm and Puppets.
With the increasing variety of book media and expanding computer
access utilizing available library space to best advantage is a challenge. Although
still available on request, some books and audios are being stored outside the
main library to accommodate the more heavily used services. Patrons are urged
to check the on-line catalog or ask at the circulation desk for titles of interest not
found on the shelves.
As always, the library administration thanks those who gave time and
gifts in support of the library this year. Appreciation is also extended to Bearly
Used Books, the Enfield Village School PTA and Mickey’s Roadside Café for
their continuing support of the summer program. Thanks also to Francine
Lozeau, Carol Stone, Judith Alger, Patricia Stevens and Nancy Laubenheimer for
their involvement in the story-time programs.
I wish to recognize the special contributions of our long-serving trustee,
Judy Kmon who moved from the area this year. Her dedication, competence as
library treasurer and support of the library activities is acknowledged. These
ranged from helping with school children and programs to sorting and assisting
with the annual book sale. Her many contributions are appreciated.
