The Archbold Community Library is going to be hosting a drop-in Puzzle Exchange in the Community Room of the Library on Saturday, April 11th from 10 am - 1 pm. Come in during that time to browse our patron-provided puzzle collection. Check out the event on our calendar here.
Bring the puzzles you no longer have a need for to the Library anytime the week of April 6th. This will allow us to get them organized by the day of! If you can't bring them before the exchange, no worries!
The Archbold Community Library's annual magazine giveaway will start at 9:30 am on Monday, April 6th.
Are you an avid cook, carpenter, gardener, birder, news junkie, or quilter? We've got a magazine for that!
Come take advantage as we let go of our 2025 issues to make room for all that 2026 has to offer!
There will be magazines for all age groups from kids to teen to adults! Find them in the bay window area of the main reading room of the Library.
Monetary donations are welcome, but not expected. Tell a friend!
It's casual! It's not your typical book club!
What Pagemasters is all about:
It's a flexible, safe space to discuss, read, and make connections. It's welcome to all readers and all books! Pagemasters meets once a month to unwind and take a break from the daily grind. Join us for good people and good books!
With the usual book clubs, there's often the scramble to finish the selected book, and the pressure to have something witty to say. Wouldn't it be great to have a book club where you could just enjoy books and company...without the homework?
