"Live free or die: Death is not the worst of evils." --General John Stark

For many Americans, July evokes summer scenes of beaches, cookouts, and glorious sunsets.

As we celebrate our nation's 241st anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, let's not forget the work of countless men and women who have struggled to give us the freedoms that are the hallmarks of the United States of America.

Stop by the library to learn more about the founding mothers and fathers of the USA.

   

   

Welcome Summer!

Summer officially arrives on Wednesday June 21.  Are you ready for sunshine, relaxation, and play?

If you're heading to the beach this summer, we've got an umbrella-full of titles to inspire you!  Here are just a few for you and your family to check out:

  

   

Celebrating Fathers

June 18 is the day we celebrate fathers, and the father figures in our lives.

The WMCC Fortier Library has a number of books for all ages about fatherhood--check them out!

  

  

  

Be safe!

As the proverb goes, it is better to be safe than sorry!   Safety isn't something that most of us pay close attention to, but we should.  Being prepared can prevent painful and costly incidents.

The National Safety Council has information on how to stay safe in various situations, and tips to prepare for potential disasters.  Visit the NSC at: healthfinder.gov

For the month of June, the WMCC Fortier Library is highlighting books on safety and accident prevention in the home, at work, online, and in the lives of children.  Stop by and check it out!

New and Improved!

The WMCC Fortier Library is very pleased to announce that we just received 20 shiny-new-fast computers for student and patron use.

All of our computers have the same programs:  Windows 10, Office 2016, multiple Internet browsers, and can print double-sided in black, or in color.  Printing is free for students; community members pay 10 cents per side for black, and 25 cents per side for color prints.  

Speaking of printers, we also have a brand new HP LaserJet Enterprise m605 duplex printer, capable of producing 56 pages per minute!   Our "old" HP LaserJet has been moved to the library's computer lab, where it will continue to print double-sided, if only at 45 pages per minute.   

As always, a member of the library staff will be happy to assist you--don't hesitate to ask!
