Text Box: Utica Zoo Mobile will be here at the library on Thursday, June 26th @ 6:30pm. The Summer Reading Program is for ages 1-18. Encourage your kids to read this summer. *while quantities last

antiques-- (they make great end tables!)-- replaced by the OPAC (on-line public access catalog).  Our new OPAC helps you find all of our Library's books plus all the nearly two million items available in the MidYork Library System.

   We couldn't be more excited about the newest technological marvel at WPL-- our brand new iMac computer with an absolutely gorgeous 24 in. high resolution screen.  The new iMac was recently donated by Flip Brown and her family in memory of her husband Dick; and celebration of his prodigious
contribution building the

Library's historical
resources.  Right out of the box, we loaded the new
machine with 150 years of  Waterville Times data, all keyword searchable and viewable life-size on the big bright screen. We'll be adding lots of photos and other great historical resources as we go along.  We've ordered a data base of U.S.
Geological Survey
topographical maps of New York for the new iMac.   And Web resources like Google Earth have never looked so good.  
   Inquire about reserving a session.

   Thanks for the memories Dick!

locate a book on the shelves.  Card catalog cabinets are now
