The Library is Open

So if you know anyone who is still without power, direct them to the library where we have a lovely warm building, the internet, and lots of reading material to keep them busy!

The photos below show the upside of Friday's ice storm--the glistening beauty of a world covered in ice! For the downside, check out the news on WMUR, NHPR, or, the reports from Public Service of NH. NHPR is collecting the stories of those affected by the storm, so if you'd like to share, click here.




If you've ever wondered how plants and animals survive the cold, your questions may be answered in these:

Dahl, Michael. Cold, Colder, Coldest: Animals That Adapt to Cold Weather. [JP DAH]

Davies, Nicola. Extreme Animals: The Toughest Creatures on Earth. [J 590 DAV]

Stokes, Donald W. A Guide to Nature in Winter: Northeast and North Central North America. [574.5 STO]

Stay warm!
