New Drop Box
The Philo Public Library is excited to announce our new drop box which was purchased though the generosity of the Bob Rice Memorial Fund was installed by Walt Crackle with help from Bill and Will Jones. The new drop box has 2 drop chutes, one for books and one for dvd’s, cd’s and audiobooks. (You may now disregard the stickers on the older items asking not to be put in drop box). The location of the drop box is in the alley to the west of the library between the library and village maintenance building.
Summer Reading Programs
Adventures in Agriculture
A new program is being offered on Wednesdays from 1:30 – 2:30 p.m. beginning June 11 and ending Aug 6 (Note- 3 more programs have been added). Registration is requested so that there will be enough supplies for everyone. Call the Library (684-2896) to register your child for any or all of these programs. It’s new, fun and an adventure that will have your child talking about what a great program they just attended.
