All are welcome. Library cards are free to all Berwick residents. We are in the Southern Maine Library District.

Friends of the Berwick Public Library

Friends baked many muffins to help the Library Board with the Trailrider Fundraiser last Sunday. The Trailrider event, Noble Woods Enduro Race, went National this year in Berwick with 450 registrants riding dirt bikes on trails beginning at Noble High School in North Berwick, through Berwick, Lebanon and Acton.

Cookbooks

If you purchased a Friends of the Library cookbook, the Library has some correction sheets for some of the recipes which were printed in error. Most of them seem to be in the dessert section. Feel free to ask for one the next time you come in.
