In the meantime, the Puzzlemania sale has returned! Pre-owned and gently used puzzled for kids and adults are on sale now in the Essex Library lobby and entryway.

The Friends are also happy to announce their latest special event, coming in January: “Putt Fore” the Essex Library.

The course will wind its way throughout the library, with each hole uniquely decorated by community and business sponsors.
