Teens

Suellen Jacobs was the Children's Librarian at the Willard location of the Huron County Community Library. She was an avid reader and an advocate for libraries. But she was also an advocate for her community. Suellen truly embodied the idea that #LibrariesTransform. Suellen passed away before our complete renovation to the Youth Services Department, but thanks to many generous donations, she has a presence in our new Storytime Room.

The Friends of the Library will be holding their Spring Book Sale May 4th, 5th, and 6th in the Annex. They will also be doing raffle ticket sales those days. 

      The Willard Memorial Library location of the Huron County Community Library is celebrating their newly renovated library this Saturday, December 3 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. with a Ribbon-cutting Ceremony and Open House.  Join us for tours and refreshments!

      On December 5 from 5-7 p.m., drop in for a holiday Pinterest Craft.  Make a special ornament from the various styles and types available.  For example, choose a wineglass ornament, or a Christmas tree, or a 3-D Snowflake.  All materials are provided.

As a result of community input, the library’s operational hours will be changing at our North Fairfield, Wakeman and Willard locations in January.

Focus Groups indicated a need for evening and Saturday hours in North Fairfield.  While Wakeman participants said they would like the library to be available when other village businesses are open.  Additionally, Willard will be opening one hour earlier on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, while remaining open an hour longer on Thursday.

The year 2016 will be marked in the annals of the Huron County Community Library as a year of physical change, in both our buildings and in personnel.  Our Willard location completed a major renovation to the interior of the library, and a facelift to our Myrtle Street entrance along with the construction of a much needed Annex across the street.  We thanked Gail Cummings and Don Gallion for their years of dedicated service, and wished them only the best in their retirement in December of 2015.
