Schedule your visit to VZC library
We are blessed to be able to celebrate Veteran’s Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas, but it does confuse us because many public services run on a different schedule during November and December. The Van Zandt County Library schedule changes somewhat during this time.
Veteran’s day will be observed Nov. 11. The county Holidays for Thanksgiving begin at noon Wednesday, Nov. 25 and are closed Thursday and Friday.
Note that Wednesday the Library will open at 9 a.m. for this special holiday schedule. Christmas closing will be different also, so watch the website, vanzandtlibrary.org, for those times.
Schedules are available in the Library. There will be no Storytime on Friday, Nov. 27.
The Christmas Bow Project will be getting underway soon. The first Christmas after the library moved to the present building, Mrs. Pat Hackney initiated a program which has become a staple at the library.
She invited patrons to buy a bow for the Christmas Tree, including donors name, with the proceeds to be dedicated to buying books for the children’s section of the library. With a few changes in procedure over the years, that program is still operating. The Friends of the Library are able to buy all the children’s books each year.
Oops! The outside book drop was damaged last week. Since this is a special waterproof box, it may take some time to get it repaired or replaced. Be patient with the staff. They are not to blame, and repairs will be made as soon as possible.
Make sharing a great part of the Thanksgiving/Christmas season. Make it especially fun by not telling anyone that you are giving, or even letting those you share with know the source.
