The Thomas Memorial Library has unveiled a new Web site offering comprehensive information about the library and its resources.

The Web site was designed and is maintained by children’s librarian, Rachel Davis. The site includes information and tutorials on using the library’s catalog, links to recommended Web sites on a variety of topics, and an interactive events calendar.

Another helpful feature of the site is the "New & Forthcoming Books" page, which provides direct links information about new and forthcoming books. Library users can keep abreast of new books by popular authors, and even place holds on them before they are published.

There are resources for young adults, parents, and children, as well. The children’s story time page includes lists of books read at story times on particular themes, as well as fingerplays and rhymes for caregivers to share with children; there is even an option for parents to receive email notifications about story times.

You can visit the library’s new website at www.thomasmemoriallibrary.org. If you had bookmarked the library’s old site, be sure to bookmark the new site in its place as the URL has changed.
