MILFORD — The following activities are planned for Milford Public Library:

Adult Craft Night

Local crafter, Kelly Engle, will demonstrate how to make a beautiful fall wreath for November adult craft night. Crafting begins at 6 p.m., Monday, Nov. 9, which is earlier than usual, so please note the time change. A wreath is on display at the adult circulation desk, where you can sign up for the craft. The cost is $12, payable at time of registration. Please sign up by 6 p.m. Friday, Nov. 6, so we can have enough materials for everyone. The wreath is made from burlap ribbons in fall colors. Make it a fun girl’s night and sign up with a friend. Anyone age 18 and up is invited to join us. Sign up today!

Closed for In-Service

The Milford Public Library will be closing early at 3:30 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 10, for a staff in-service. We apologize for any inconvenience this creates but there are drop boxes located on the south end of our building to return any materials after hours. If you need anything on Tuesday, Nov. 10, come in before we close or come by the next day. We will open at 10 a.m. Wednesday, Nov. 11.

Join staff for fall story time this week at 10:15 a.m. or 1:30 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 11, or at 7 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 12, as we read about squirrels and nuts.
