The pandemic has taught us that now, more than ever, we need the library. A library card, which is free to all township residents, is the best bargain in town.
E-books, streaming movies and music on hoopla, digital magazines from Flipster, access to Ancestry.com, on-line story times for children, trivia nights via Zoom, Meet-the-author on-line discussion groups, and much more. If you don’t have a card you can sign up for a free virtual card now and begin to use all of the content mentioned above. When the library re-opens you can continue to use all of the online content and all of the “in-house” resources as well. Get your card by going to the Memorial Library of Nazareth and Vicinity website. Vote YES on the referendum and keep the library strong.
