Hey everyone, we need your help! San Luis Valley Federal Bank's 2024 Spirit of Giving donation program will begin on November 11th and end December 13th. This program sets aside $35,000 to be donated to local SLV non-profits such as ourselves. Every account you have open with SLVFB is a vote. The more votes we receive, the larger share of the $35,000 we will receive. The money we raise this year will go towards upgrading our elevators at our Monte Vista Branch. You may vote online at their website, www.slvfed.bank, or in one of their three branches. Thank you for your consideration. We greatly appreciate your support!

Are you looking for a perfect Christmas gift to give to your favorite book reader? In Monte Vista we have many very nice new and next-to-new titles for sale as part of our ongoing fundraiser for the elevator upgrade. Also remember that cash donations, as well as donations of good, clean and recent books will be accepted at the circulation desk. Thank you for supporting your local library.

 

* Computers and Printers are shut down for cleaning and maintenance 30 minutes before the Library closes. Please plan accordingly.

* WIFI at the Carnegie Library Monte Vista Branch shuts down at 4:30 PM.
