Hello all,

Our website has a new look, we hope you like the changes!   One new feature is the ability to sign up for notifications of library events as well as any other town department news by using the Notify Me button at the bottom of the calendar page http://www.orono.org/calendar.aspx?CID=24,  With that in mind, we plan to phase out these weekly emails in the future.  We hope that this will keep everyone informed of the things they’d like to know about without flooding your inboxes. 

Next week in the Children’s Department:
