Curbside Service

One of the amazing things that has come from the insanity in 2020 is businesses and such have made curb side service work.

While we have ALWAYS been glad to accommodate the needs of our patrons, we feel making it official is best.

How does it work? Pretty easily for our patrons that have their cards.

• Go to cat.jwlwhitebluff.com and sign in to your account using your library card number and pin.
• Browse the catalog and reserve the books/materials that you would like. We currently have a limit of 2 items.
• OR call us with your selections and we can take care of it that way also.
• We will call you or email you when your items are ready. We limit the hold for 5 days before returning them to shelves.
• When you arrive, you can either come in and get your items or call us and let us know you are here.
• Once you are finished with the items (14 day loan) you can drop them in the book return that is on the north side of the building (facing the fire hall)

Conditions of Curbside Checkout:

By using our curbside service, you the patron, acknowledge that you will abide by the Jennie Woodworth Library checkout agreement. Materials are checked out for 14 days at a time. If those materials are late they incur a $0.25 fine per item per day. Renewal after the item is late does not remove existing fine. In addition, in order to use our curbside service, your account must be in good standing.

In Memory of Mary E. Adcock

We are sadden with the news of our friend and patron Mrs. Mary Adcock having left this world. Mary loved our library and enjoyed coming here with her grand daughter.

We will miss you Mary.

A donation of books has been made in memory of Mary Adcock to our children's book section.

Grumpy Monkey by Suzanne Lang

Jim the chimpanzee is in a terrible mood for no good reason. His friends can't understand it--how can he be in a bad mood when it's SUCH a beautiful day? They have lots of suggestions for how to make him feel better. But Jim can't take all the advice...and has a BIT of a meltdown. Could it be that he just needs a day to feel grumpy?

Suzanne and Max Lang bring hilarity and levity to this very important lesson on emotional literacy, demonstrating to kids that they are allowed to feel their feelings.

Grumpy Monkey Party Time! by Suzanne Lang

Have you ever been a little anxious about going to a party? Jim Panzee feels that. Porcupine is having a big party, and according to Jim's best friend Norman, there will be--gulp--dancing. Jim can DEFINITELY not dance. When he tells his friends, they all try to teach him cool moves--surely that's the only reason Jim isn't excited about this party!

Now, their job complete, the other animals sweep Jim along, all the way to the dance floor. Jim is dipped, swayed, and twirled until he can't take it anymore--he just doesn't like to dance! When he lets everyone know, he's met with disbelief...until Water Buffalo reveals that he doesn't much care to dance, either. As more and more animals have the courage speak their truths, does this mean there's no place for them at this party?

In this hilarious sequel to GRUMPY MONKEY, kids will learn that it's okay not to go with the flow if they're uncomfortable, and that speaking up about what they need can help others speak up, too--and maybe they need the same thing!

The One and Only Sparkella by Channing Tatum

Ella is excited for her first day at a new school.

Glimmering pencil case? Check!

Shimmering backpack? Check!

Glittery ribbons in her hair? Check!

She can't wait to meet the other kids and share her sparkly personality. But her first day doesn't go quite as planned: Her new classmates don't like her disco-ball shoes, her PB&J-with-sprinkles sandwich, or her rainbow-y unicorn painting.

Ella decides to try to be less sparkly at school the next day so the other kids won't make fun of her. But with a little help from her dad, she soon learns the importance of just being herself, no matter what other people say.
