[gview file=”https://www.thenbxpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/Library-Newletter-March-2015.pdf”]

It’s TAX TIME
Tax Forms are available near the Main Desk. We have copies of the most common forms.
If you need other forms, many are found on the IRS’s website at www.irs.gov or from Reproducible Tax Forms which we have available here also.
If you are filing a form 1040EZ, many companies will file from their website for free. Check out the IRS’s website for details or go to the Library website and click on the link.
There are scans of historic pictures of North Baltimore on our public computers. Look for a folder marked NB Historical Society Scans.
We have past editions of the North Baltimore News on microfilm.
We also are converting these files to digital PDF files on two of the public computers. To date we have 2007 back to 1979. More will become available as they are converted.
Did you know?…..
The “O” when used as a prefix in Irish surnames (like O’Malley,) means “descendant of.”
Spring will arrive here on
March 20th at 6:45 PM.
In Memory of Jeanne Chapman
Visit the Children’s Area and try the new AccuCut Mark IV roller die cutting machine and new dies. All items were purchased in Memory of Jeanne Chapman. The new dies include: Winged
Shoe, Awareness Ribbon, Tiger Mascot, and Megaphone. The Mark IV cuts 6 to 8 sheets of paper and up to 5 dies at a time.
Thank you to Briar Hill Health Campus and the Friends of the Library for donating our After School Snacks. Children are walking through sleet and snow for them.
Spring Book Sale
We have scheduled our Spring Book Sale for April 9th through the 11th, with a Friends of the Library exclusive pre-sale on April 8th.
We are still accepting donations of books, magazines, movies and music for the sale. Just bring your items to the Main Desk and we will take them off your hands. Do not dismay, your items will be sold at the Book Sale where we hope they will go to a good home and be treated well.
Lego Permanent Display
Check out the display case in the Wolfe Community Room hallway for our Lego display.
The “Lone Ranger Constitution Train Chase” set was donated by Bonnie Knaggs. New Lego display items are added as children create and build during our Lego Hour children’s program. Kids: Join in Lego Hour, March 24th, 3:00-4:00 pm and build with library Legos. The Lego Challenge for March is constructing a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow!
Dedicating a Memorial book or other item in memory of a loved one is a great way to honor their memory. A memorial is also a great way to remember a beloved pet.
We also accept Honor Books donated to honor a family member or friend who has achieved some milestone such as graduation, marriage, birth of a child or military service.
NOTICE
The 2014 Annual Financial Report for the North Baltimore Public Library is complete and has been submitted to the Auditor of the State of Ohio and is available at the Fiscal Officer’s office in the library at 230 N Main St., North Baltimore, Ohio.

Spring Ideas – Plant a Garden
Although operating a rototiller needs to be done by an adult, kids can have a lot of fun planting a garden. They are also more likely to eat vegetables they have grown themselves rather than fighting to get them to eat a teaspoon of store bought canned green beans. Kids can dig rows, plant seeds, water and help weed – just make sure they know the difference between the garden plants and the weeds!
