This winter we once again invite the community to Cozy Up to a Good Book! Our popular winter reading program is open to all interested adults. No registration is required, and you don't need a library card to participate.
The New Glarus Public Library has an opening for the position of library page. This is a part-time position that typically works 10-12 hours per week, and includes evening and Saturday shifts. This position pays $8 per hour and is not eligible for benefits.
We are partnering with the New Glarus School District to encourage our community to Connect Through Reading. Participation is simple - for each book you read, log the title on a paper chain link and drop it in the collection basket. Students from the school district and members of the community will be working together to create a giant paper chain. (Each chain link = one book read.)
Notice of Interim Hours: Beginning November 2nd, the library will be adopting a temporary change in our hours of operation. The library will close at 5 PM on Fridays during the months of November, December, and January. We will remain open until 7 PM Mondays through Thursdays, and until 3 PM on Saturdays. The change in hours is being made to ensure that the library remains fully staffed during the search for a new library director. We will resume our 7 PM Friday closing time in February. Thank you for your patience during this time of transition.
We are thrilled to announce the launch of our newest service: in-home book delivery for patrons who are unable to travel to the library due to disability. This service is available to homebound patrons who live within the village of New Glarus. If you, or someone you know, is interested in participating, here's how you can get started:
We add new books, audiobooks, music and movies to our collection every week. Click on the links below for a list of our new items, or visit our Pinterest page to see even more great new goodies.
