*July 27(Saturday) at 6:00 PM in the library– Mike Anderson – The Dulcimerguy will bring his own special brand of entertainment to go along with our Summer Reading theme of Read, Renew, Repeat through a program about “ junk instruments”. Mike is a nationally known storyteller, dulcimer player, entertainer, and all around creative and funny guy!

PLEASE PLAN TO BRING THE FAMILY AND ENJOY THESE PROGRAMS WITH US. THEY ARE MADE POSSIBLE BY OUR GRANT FROM THE TRACY FAMILY FOUNDATION.

Another new program being funded by our Tracy Family Foundation Grant! Early Literacy Family Bingo is for ages 0-6 years and the information is posted below. Please stop by the library to pick up your packet for the official kickoff on Monday, March 4, and to find out what reward incentives are being offered for completing bingos!

We apologize for taking so long to get our 2023 Century Club scroll printed and hung.

Without generous supporters like these and others throughout the year we would not be able to keep upgrading the library’s materials, services, programs, and physical appearance. March and April will bring one of our biggest projects to date… fresh paint and new flooring throughout the building to replace the original- which is over 30 years old! This is a huge undertaking and we’ll need to close the library periodically so look for notices regarding that in the future. We can’t wait to show it off and we send out a huge thank you to all of you for helping to make this possible!

If you’re a Kindle Fire user and have had trouble getting Cloud Library to work on it, hopefully this will alleviate the problem.

Hi there,

I’m reaching out to let you know that we recently launched the Book Lovers Scholarship, and we’d love to receive applications from Greenfield Public Library..

This scholarship aims to support students who love reading books and believe in the power of reading to transform their lives and become good people in the world. 

All students with a passion for reading may apply for this scholarship.

We humbly ask for your support in sharing this information by adding the link to our scholarship page on greenfieldpl.org, as this will make it easier for your members to review our scholarship opportunities.

An update for all who might be interested in our Safesitter course through Carlinville Area Hospital & Clinics. It will be held on a Saturday at the library in Jan. or Feb. of 2024. Lunch will be provided. The cost per student is $25 but the library will pay a portion of that with grant funding we’ve received for outreach programming.

We are ready for library crawlers to visit our library during the month of October! Our patrons can get passports in the library. Each passport has QR codes for maps and attractions/eateries to make it easier to plan your outings. You can stay close to home or branch out in your travels. White Hall Township Public Library, Roodhouse Public Library, Jerseyville Public Library, Brighton Memorial Library District, The Hayner Public Library District, Carlinville Public LIbrary, and Winchester Public Library are just a few of the 158 libraries participating this year! Have fun!
