A Message from the Library Director Dear Bristol Borough Community and Grundy Patrons, Warm greetings from the Grundy Library! It’s Back to School next week in Bristol Borough and the Library wants to extend our thanks to the teachers and school administration as they prepare to welcome the children back to the classroom. Thanks for all you do to build the confidence of your students and support their curiosity and wonder as it pertains to the world and our community. The Grundy Library remains an essential resource for students, families, teachers and the entire community to pursue lifelong learning and personal growth. In addition, we are dedicated to connecting our community members with the support they need throughout their lives. From our collection of books, movies, museum passes, databases and specialty kits to our streaming services, virtual programming and helpful staff, the Library is committed to providing access to information, resources, and assistance whenever you need it. Visit the Library online -anytime, anywhere – to search our online catalog, use our research databases, explore local history, chat with a librarian, and so much more. As a reminder, the Library building is closed for construction. Some of the improvements in progress are new paint and carpeting, study rooms, a riverside seating area, patio terraces, and a new roof! Grundy Library staff will also be participating in First Friday on September 3rd. Stop by our table and say “hello”! Warm regards, Dana Barber Library Director
