The Dartmouth Public Libraries have been in the news recently now that the North Dartmouth Branch Library has reopened after a year and half of being closed. Residents in the northern part of town have quickly adapted back to picking up holds and returning items at the North Dartmouth Branch Library. The library warmly invites you to join us for an Open House at the branch on October 17th from 5 to 7:00 p.m.
