Other Ways to Connect with Ozark Regional Library

We're on break from story time this week, but I thought I'd share links to our two existing Ozark Regional Facebook pages (one for Ironton Headquarters and one for our Fredericktown branch). If you're needing your library fix but don't want to come to a brick-'n-stick location, visit us on Facebook for oodles of program photos, book picks, gardening and cooking tips, poetry, trivia, memes and cartoons, and more!  Click here to visit Ironton's Facebook page, and here to visit Fredericktown's.
