A Message from the Library Director Dear Bristol Borough Community and Grundy Patrons, Autumn greetings from the Grundy Library! 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! Historic Bristol Day is Saturday, October 16 and we're having an outdoor book sale. You're invited to browse (and purchase) fiction and nonfiction books, children's titles, graphic novels, audiobooks and more! We look forward to seeing you. Best wishes, Dana Barber Library Director
