We will be closed on Monday, December 25, 2023 and Monday, January 1, 2024

Help us meet our goal to “Open at Opendore”.

We’re raising money to build a new library adjacent to Opendore in Sherwood. To meet new challenges, we’ve set up this campaign on Paypal with a goal of $50,000.

With your help, Hazard Library Association can reach this goal and continue the work we’ve set out to do in this campaign.

Please help if you can. Every donation makes a difference.

In case of winter weather on a Tuesday or Thursday:

If SCCS opening is delayed by 1 hour: No Story Hour, Library opens at 9 am

If SCCS opening is delayed by 2 hours or closed: No Story Hour, Library opens in the afternoon

If SCCS dismisses early or there are no afterschool activities: Library closes at 5 pm

In case of winter weather on a Saturday or SCCS vacations: A change in open hours will be determined by the Library Director and/or the Library Assistant.

Please check Hazard Library Facebook, channel 3, 5 and 9, or call 315-364-7975 for the daily information on closings.

We now have some COVID tests available courtesy of East Hill Medical Center. They ask that you report any positive results to the library for anonymous tracking of cases across the county.

We still have museum passes to borrow from the Sciencenter in Ithaca. Stop in any time to check one out.

 

 

You can see what we have added to our shelves during the past 6 months by visiting New Materials

 

                            

We now have a donation box available if you would like to help us with our building expenses.

Stop in to find out about our plans to relocate the library to Opendore and to see our concept drawings.
