The
Exeter Public Library has been open for 6 months and if
you haven’t been by yet for a visit,
you are missing out on a lot of great materials, events,
and programs! Unfortunately,
the winter weather has kept many of you away, but with spring
right around the corner, we expect to see a lot of new faces
very soon. The Friends of the Exeter Public Library has not
let the winter weather stop us, but have continued to support
the needs of the library, the library staff, and those who
have ventured out to its programs.
We hold our monthly book sales and monthly Friends’ meetings in the Library
