The Lane Memorial Library is open 60 hours per week, including 4 evenings and every Saturday?

We host two book discussions for adults: one on the third Thursday of the month at 1:00 p.m., and the second on the first Tuesday of the month at 6:30 p.m.

We subscribe to 13 newspapers and 291 magazines.

We hold two large book sales per year, one specifically for children and one for the general public.

We fill 99% of the interlibrary loan items our patrons request, sometimes from as far away as California.

We hold an average of 16 story times every month.

A total of $2975 was collected in our donation jars in 2008.
