Message from Anne (the new Director)

Did you know that your community library is a great source for technology?

The Elmwood Library has three desktop computers and one laptop ready for public use.

Check your email!
Do your homework!
Read the news!
Watch a YouTube video!

The library has headphones too. Plug them in and watch your Netflix movies in relative privacy. Just don't laugh out loud too hard or the librarian might get jealous.

The library also has free wifi. Bring your own laptop or mobile device and jump on the network. The password is readily available for anyone who asks.

Need to print something? The library has fax/scanner/printer/copier capabilities too. For a nominal fee, you can print documents, homework or even job applications. Our staff is glad to help.

Need to scan an original document and email it to someone? We can help!
Need extra copies of your birth certificate? We can help!
Need to fax something to the social security office? We can help!

Are you unsure of your computer skills? Need a little insight into navigating a website. Our staff can help you get started.

We've helped patrons take online Defensive Driving classes and even find income tax documents. We might not know everything, but we know enough to be dangerous!

Oh, and we have books too.

Be Sure to stop by the library and say HELLO!!

Mahoney State Park Activities

Looking for something to do with the kids during the winter. We have a wonderful "playground" right in our own backyard with Mahoney state park offering ice skating, ice fishing, and indoor birthday parties at the playground. So if your kids are getting cabin fever let them run off some energy in the ball pits and climbing wall and not your furniture.
