Through Labor Day, Quechee Library will close at 6 pm on weekdays.  It will also be closed for the Labor Day holiday, Sept. 5.  Other hours at the QW Libraries remain the same.

Many restrictions have been listed.  Wearing of masks when in library for short periods of time is optional.  However, participants attending in-person programs and discussions of longer time spans must be vaccinated and boosted.  Almost all of our programs are offered in hybrid fashion so that virtual attendance is an option.

On April 5th, Ham Gillett, Program/Outreach Coordinator for the Greater Upper Valley Solid Waste Management District, answered questions about what is both the ever-increasing complexity and importance of proper handling of waste. A short summary follows for those who could not attend our hybrid program.  While Hartford is no longer part of the GUVSWMD, Ham invites questions through his email at hgillett@marcvt.org. The district’s website provides additional information at https://www.guvswmd.org/ as does the Town of Hartford’s website at https://www.hartford-vt.org/2203/Recycling-Solid-Waste

Ham began by providing dates for the following events: Styrofoam Recycling – April 16, 9-11 am at 227 Mechanic St. in Lebanon (behind Jake’s Coffee). Instructions for how and what to bring: https://sustainablelebanon.wordpress.com/   Household Hazardous Waste Collection – July 9, 9 am to 1 pm and Sept. 13, 1:30-5:30 pm at the Hartford Transfer Station.
