The Pember Library<\/h1>\n

The mission of the Pember Library is to provide the people of its community with access to a balanced collection of books and other materials which will serve their educational, cultural and recreational needs.<\/p>\n

Libraries are about more than reading. They are a place for getting information, accessing technology, meeting your friends and colleagues, and offering the perfect environment for working and learning.<\/p>\n

Using this blog you will be able to access lots of information about the Pember Library, your account and<\/g> the surrounding area. Near the top of the page<\/g> there are several tabs. They lead to basic information about the library that does not change often. On the right is<\/g> a calendar and a listing of upcoming events. To the left under Library Links are several areas where you will need your library card.<\/p>\n

The Library Catalog<\/a><\/em><\/span> helps you find books, videos, and other items you are looking for.<\/p>\n

Research<\/em><\/span> <\/a>gives you free access to databases and thousands of newspapers, magazines and journals, health and wellness sites, language and literature sites, and several other databases. You may need your library card to use some of these databases.<\/span><\/p>\n

The download audiobooks\u00a0 OverDrive<\/a><\/span> box is a clickable link to SALON (Southern Adirondack Library ON-demand) that lets you download free digital versions of many books to your computer. You can listen to them from your computer or they can be transferred to many portable listening devices. There is a list of supported devices on the site. See the help files or contact the Pember Library if you have questions on this. A brochure is available at the library desk.<\/p>\n

We have recently added e-books that can be downloaded to your computer. An e-book is a digital, onscreen version of a published physical book. The format of the title is text-based, and some eBooks are interactive, with sound and hyperlinks. The Kindle will soon be compatible with this collection.<\/p>\n

Other Local Libraries<\/a> <\/em><\/span>is a link to SALS Member Library Information.<\/p>\n

Your Account<\/em><\/a><\/span> lets you request and renew materials, see what you have checked out and when your items are due, check on fines and fees on your account, look at your reading history (if you have chosen that option, ask at the desk for info), and create and save catalog searches.<\/p>\n

Local Authors<\/em><\/a> <\/span>links local authors to their books in our library catalog. These authors live in New York\u2019s Hamilton, Saratoga, Warren or Washington Counties.<\/p>\n

New Stuff is fiction, nonfiction, children\u2019s books, videos and DVDs that recently have been added\u00a0 to<\/g> the Pember Library collection.<\/p>\n

You are invited to leave a comment about blog items. You\u2019ll find the link for that at the bottom of each blog post.\u00a0 All comments are moderated.\u00a0 The library reserves the right to edit entries for content and length.<\/p>\n
