The Confederate Flag - A Modern Controversy

Wednesday, January 28th @ 6pm

We welcome back Professor Larry Hudson, author, and Associate Professor of History, University of Rochester. Professor Hudson will share his latest research and insights on this controversial symbol.

With the Town Board cut of $75,000 to our 2015 requested funding, and the final cut by Wayne County of funds totaling $8600 in three years, the Library Trustees made the difficult decision to reduce some staff hours and several library hours of operation.  Programming budgets, library materials, equipment, and supplies are also cut.

These cuts to hours are the first part in our efforts to reduce staff wages.  The new Library schedule will change on January 3, 2015 to these hours.

The Officers of the Friends of the Ontario Public Library extend their thanks to Friends and community members who generously supported the Annual Book Sale last week. Special thanks goes out to all volunteers who gave of their time and energy setting up tables, moving and sorting books, selling and cleaning up after the sale!  We also want to thank library patrons and other visitors who supported this effort with their purchases.  All around: we could not have done it without you!
