Sign at Mountainburg Library

Hooray! Mountainburg Library has a new sign!

Hooray! Mountainburg Library has a sign! We’re so grateful to those of you who donated or volunteered to help us raise money for this project, especially our wonderful Friends of the Library group. Thanks also to Jared Graham of Boulder Designs of NWA for making this beautiful sign for us! And to the city of Mountainburg for helping us dig the footing. We also remember Sue Yount today, since we built the sign in her memory for her many years of service to the Mountainburg Public Library. The dust is still settling on the sign and we have a little dirt to put back in place, but we’re so glad to be able to serve as we do here in Mountainburg, providing resources and library services for young and old alike. Now that you know where we are, stop by and see us!
