Final Repairs

Well, this is the last repairs we will be doing to this blogger for a while. It took us a while to get the last little glitches out and thanks to a lot of patrons and volunteers they thought this looked better then the one provided before. We hope you enjoy the new feel and easier to read blogger of our news and reviews. We also think one of our Friends for providing us with the new logo shown above.

More things will be up and running within the week as these changes are reviewed and revised to fit this new look. We will keep you advised.

Sincerely,

Marlin Public Library Staff
