Montrose Library District

Do you have a story about using the resources at the library to positively impact your health? If so, send it to Woman's Day magazine by May 11th, and it might be one of the four selected to appear in the magazine.

Women 18 and over are invited to tell their story in 700 words or less and send it to womansday@ala.org. Up to four stories will be highlighted in the March 2009 issue of Woman's Day. For more information and to read the official rules, visit http://www.womansday.com/ala.

The initiative is sponsored by the Montrose Library District, Woman's Day and the American Library Association's Campaign for America's Libraries, a national public awareness campaign to promote the value of libraries and librarians.

This Library Is Always Open

AskColorado is a free online information service provided by Colorado libraries. Anyone can use the website, www.askcolorado.org, to ask questions anytime day or night. This is one library that's always open! Real librarians in real time answer your questions, help you find information, or point you in the right direction to get what you need.

Spanish speaking librarians are available too.

Book Repair



Have an old book that's falling apart? Would you like to get it fixed up? For the price of a donation to the Friends of the Library, we will stitch up that old binding or fix that broken spine. Just bring your ailing books to the library on the first Saturday of every month, between 11:00 am and noon.
