Vote for HFL in the Community Matters More Sweepstakes!


Bangor Savings Bank will again be awarding grants of $5,000 to the top vote-getting organizations in each region (we're in the Central region), as well as $1,000 grants to 60 additional organizations. Go to Community Matters More and write in Hubbard Free Library Hallowell Maine today. (Actually, when you click on the Other box, to do your write-in, Hubbard should come up. But if not, write it in!)

Having trouble accessing our catalog from home? There have been some changes made "behind the scenes," so you may need to type in our URL (www.hubbardfree.org) fresh, rather than clicking on it in your Favorites. Hopefully that will take care of the problem.

Coming Events

Mardi Gras Book Sale, Saturday, Feb. 18, 9 a.m.-12 p.m.
Sponsored by the Friends of Hubbard Free Library. The usual terrific bargains on hardback and paperback books, as well as video cassettes and audio books. Also as usual, volunteers will be appreciated the Friday night before (Feb. 17th), 5:30-6:30 p.m., when we will be bringing the books up from the basement. Volunteers will also be needed Saturday noon to about 1 p.m, to rebox books not sold.

HFL Book Club - Meets 3rd Tuesday of each month. Next meeting, 6pm, Tuesday, February 21.
The book chosen for February is "Pink Chimneys" by Ardeana Hamlin Knowles. Copies are available at the front desk. There will also be some discussion of January's book, "Mrs. Dalloway," since we did not meet in January, due to the weather.

Current Displays:

Winter Activities - A collection of books about skiing, skating, dog sledding and, of course, reading!
Use some financial tips? - A selection of titles to help make the most from what you've got!

Children's Hour:

Wednesdays, 10:30-11:30 a.m. Stories and crafts for 2-5 year olds, younger and older siblings welcome. This is a great opportunity for parents and care-givers to meet and chat with other parents, too.

Friends of Hubbard Free Library Meeting, Wednesday, January 25, 12 p.m.
The Friends meet the fourth Wednesday of every month at 12 noon, brain-storming ideas for programs and fund-raisers to help the library. Please join us!
