CONSTRUCTION UPDATE

Isn’t She beautiful?  Stop by when you have a minute for a tour!

We’ve had to stop progress on the interior because we’ve run out of Phase II money.  The next check from New York State is not expected before May of 2018, so we’ve published a GoFundMe account in the hopes of attracting the attention of those who make large charitable contributions at the end of each fiscal year.  We’ll keep you posted on our progress!

This is very exciting news, indeed.  I’ve already downloaded this free application and played around with it – it is everything you will want in the catalog and MORE!  Cool Beans!

Matt Corey, NCLS’ Online Resources Consultant, is proud to announce that the mobile app is now available in app stores! Simply search ‘North Country Library System’ in the App Store on your phone for it. Since the app is new, it may be further down in list results but the icon will look like this:
