​                       Returning to Curbside-only Services
      Because of the uptick in Covid cases and an anticipated surge after Thanksgiving, the Library is returning to curbside pickup service only. Click here for how it works.
      During this time when the building is closed, these services are still available: checking out library materials, interlibrary loan, photocopying (give items to be copied to the staff at the window), fax (outgoing only), and wifi, which is on 24/7. Staff can also print out items from a website or an email for patrons who don't have a computer or printer at home. 
​        We're still here and happy to help in any way we can!

Paintings to Benefit the Library
Waldoboro artist, Lisa Kyle, will donate 25% of the proceeds of the sales of these four of her paintings to Library.

Such beautiful paintings! Such a generous donation!  Thank you, Lisa!

In Lisa's words from her newsletter:
"October was a lovely month here in Maine. Of the 12 paintings in this collection, 10 of them were painted plein-aire, on site. I painted in some of the same locations multiple times, documenting the changing colors of the meadows and trees.
 
You can see the entire collection here: http://lkyle.faso.com/collections/151366
 
In this time of political upheaval and worries about rising covid infections, I have been trying to focus on good things around me: the beauty of nature and the good work that so many people are still doing. The Waldoboro Public Library is one of the places that is contributing to the community. Even though their funding is down significantly, they have extended their hours to provide a safe place to students to study and access the internet. So I am going to donate 25% of the sales from this newsletter to the Waldoboro Public Library.
 
I hope that you are doing well and staying safe!
 
Many thanks to all of you for your support!
Lisa"
