Saline District Library is moving into phase three of their renovations, which are expected to be completed in January. In the meantime, the staff is making adjustments during construction. Many of the programs are now off-site as the library goes on the road to various locations around town.
Family Fun Story time has moved temporarily to the Cultural 109, where children and their caregivers have plenty of room to dance and sing. Librarians bring totes full of mats for the children to sit on while listening to the stories.
“We really appreciate Saline Main Street for partnering with us,” said Karrie Waarala, library director.
“One of our librarians has also developed a partnership with Carrigan Café, so we’re doing some of our evening book groups there. It’s been great to have that support from some of the other organizations in the community while we don’t have programming space here.”
Jessica Lash, assistant director, was on hand this week at Carrigan Café to lead the Feisty Women’s Book Club. The women discussed this month’s read, “Warrior Girl Unearthed” by Angeline Boulley. Lash has been leading this group since 2018.
“I did tell the staff that it is okay to scale it back while things are in storage and we don’t have the space for it,” Waarala said. “Our staff love programming so much and do such great programming. It was tough for them to think about scaling back.”
“Our staff has been remarkable throughout this project,” Waarala added. “They have gone through so many changes and shifts and they have rolled with all the punches. We still continue to provide fantastic service to the community.”
Library patrons are encouraged to visit the Saline District Library website to keep updated on future off-site programs.

The mayor literally handed out a pre-printed motion in favor of Swallow and gave it to Lesch and Ceo to read first. Ceo read it word for word as a motion. It was drafted before the interviews. They were performative in an attempt to placate the public. I have nothing against Mr.
Once again, we are going to have to agree to disagree, Libby.

Given all the angst, mistrust, innuendo, as well as apparent desire by some council members to have specific shortcoming of some of the other candidates as understood by the Committee put on public display, were I one of the other candidates still in the running, I would be giving serious consideration to saying "th
Wow. Ali has definitely drank the Marl Kool Aid. Very ironic that any time Marl is questioned you supply unwavering support for the Mayor regardless of the facts. Curious how your rhetoric sounds exactly like his 🤔
Oh goodness. It is not a matter of supporting or not supporting Marl. It is a matter of not supporting those who engage in unfounded and unsupported attacks and fuel the fans of controversy and division with unfounded attacks and innuendo. Unfortunately, there is so much of that garbage going on at the Federal le
