Many thanks to Mary Fonda, and Moss Library

We wish good health and happiness to Mary Fonda our long-time librarian for the Moss Memorial Library in Hayesville, NC as she retires this year. We are grateful for Mary and the library which has always been supporters of our writers and NCWN-West. In my travels around western NC and visits to libraries far and wide, I hear nothing but praise and compliments for Moss Library. 

Of course, Mary's library assistant, Deborah Kenyon, is always there to make sure everything works like a well-oiled clock. She does her very best to help us schedule meetings for NCWN-West events at the library. It is perfect for us because it is handicap accessible and all local writers can attend.

We look forward to working with the new Branch Manager, Griffin Anderson. We hear good things about him. 

We are delighted that Deborah continues as Library Assistant. She sent the following information about the library and you might want to copy and keep this handy.

The hours for the Moss Memorial Library (except for holidays and inclement weather) are:

•  Tuesdays from 9 AM to 8 PM
•  Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays from 9 AM to 5 PM

Moss Memorial Library Phone Number:  828-389-8401

 Please send emails concerning the Moss Memorial Library to our respective Nantahala Library emails:

•  Griffin Anderson, Branch Manager:   ganderson@nantahalalibrary.org
•  Deborah Kenyon, Library Assistant:   dkenyon@nantahalalibrary.org

This would allow the Moss Memorial Library to respond sooner to scheduling requests.

 Of course, Coffee with the Poets and Writers is on schedule to resume its monthly meetings beginning Wednesday, March 8, 2023, in the library's meeting room.
