Please be aware that if the schools cancel due to weather, the library is also closed.
The Sherburne Library is free of charge to all Vermont residents and Killington property taxpayers. There are two types of library cards:
Personal card: a single, confidential account.
Family card: an account shared among family members. Anyone listed on the family card may see what items are checked out on the account or pick up items being held, regardless of who requested them.
Any family member can be on a family card account and have a personal card account. Visitors may purchase a card if they would like to borrow library materials. The fee is $15 for an individual and $25 for a family card.
The eclipse taking place on Monday, April 8, is being celebrated at the library. We’re showing a short documentary about eclipses and why they happen at 1pm. After that, we’ll venture outside to see what we can see. We’re hoping the predicted clouds and rain will move out of the forecast. We’ll have eclipse cookies…
Tuesday, March 19 at noon we will paint a stunning Vermont scene from a photograph. Local journalist Victoria Gaither published her photograph “Chasing the Sunrise” in the Mountain Times and Lauren Teton of Arty Party Vermont found it compelling and enjoyable to paint, so she will teach her students at the library to copy the scene…
The library has glasses for the April 8th eclipse. We are happy to hand them out at the circulation desk on a first come, first served basis. To make sure that we have enough for everyone, we’re asking that you take no more than 4 pair for your family. We will begin handing them out…

Each Tuesday from 1-3pm, we have volunteers that come to the library to help us get ready for the summer reading program.

We are just outside the path of totality, but this is what Killington can expect if we have sunshine on Monday. The library has glasses and eclipse cookies! We'll share a story or two and start watching at 2pm on Monday. All are welcome.

With 18+ inches predicted tonight and tomorrow, the library will close on Saturday, March 23. No one needs to be on the roads in that kind of weather! Especially staff driving half an hour to get here. You still have plenty of time to stop in and pick up books, movies, puzzles, etc. Stay warm and safe and enjoy the snow!!!!

Addie visited a dress maker and got a new dress on vacation. She loved seeing all the sights...the mountains, the beaches, the towns and shops! She will be back from her adventures tomorrow.

This is Adelaide, Sam's cousin, who also lives here at the library. Since Sam went on his adventure in New Orleans, Addie decided it was time for an adventure of her own. She hitched a ride with Lynne for a trip to the Canary Islands.
