An online suggestion box is now available at suggestions@ElRitoLibrary.org. A box for paper suggestions will soon be installed at the library. Make your interests and ideas known! The December challenge grant appears to have been a big success. While we do not know the exact total yet as we are still closing the books on the quarter ended December 31, it appears the challenge goal of $15,000 was handily exceeded. Recent Events
The January 10 Board meeting was very well attended. The Board appreciates the input of all community members! The January 10 STEM-based hands-on program presented by the ¡explora! Science Center and Children's Museum from Old Town Albuquerque was enjoyed by all attendees. Science kits were handed out to attendees and to grandparents at the library for their grandkids. Local History
A Developing Project will focus on historic fruit growing in Northern NM. Stay tuned! A Planned Oral History Project for El Rito Underway mid-April 2024. A New Traveling Exhibit We Created A grant from the Northern New Mexico National Heritage Area helped the El Rito Library create three new exhibit banner stands which we'll soon be transporting to schools and community meetings to talk about our community's fascinating natural and cultural history.
