The Thomas B. Norton Public Library will be closed to honor the Veteran's Day holiday on November 11, 2011. We will re-open on Saturday, November 12, for our normal hours.
Did you know that November 11th was originally Armistice Day, to mark the anniversary of the official end of World War I? Since 1954, November 11th has been set aside as a day to honor veterans of all American wars.
