Goodbye Lanesboro

Today is my last day as the director of the Lanesboro Public Library.  Before I leave, I would just like to thank the community for all the support you have provided for me and for the library over the past three years.  It is truly the residents of Lanesboro that make our library great.  I hope everyone is able to stop down in the next few days and welcome the new director, Tara.

Adios!

-Jill

Kill-A-Watt Meters Now Available

Kill-A-Watt meters from P3 International are now available to check out at the library.

The cost of electricity can really hit you where it hurts.  Now with Kill-A-Watt you can reduce energy costs and identify the real energy abusers.  Simply plug an appliance into the meter and it will assess how efficient they really are.  You can figure out your electrical expense by the day, week, month, or year.
