For the past three years, we’ve supported McCormick’s First Steps participation in Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library.  Enrollment in this program provides one book per month for each McCormick resident’s child from birth to age five. Call 864-443-5382 for additional information about enrollment.

Have you seen the Little Libraries in our community?  They’re wonderful micro-mini libraries.  Need a book?  Feel free to take one, trade one, or share one.  We currently have three Little Libraries (at the McCormick Family Practice, the Strom Seating Area behind the McCormick Chamber of Commerce and in the alcove at Willington.

The McCormick Library Book Club welcomes anyone who lives in the McCormick community. The club meets on the 3rd Tuesday of each month at 4 pm at the McCormick Library.   For more information, contact Linda DeShano at  ldeshano@yahoo.com  or (864) 391-3788.
