PUZZLE EXCHANGE
Do you buy puzzles, have a wonderful time putting them together but then leave them in the closet to gather dust? We created this exchange to make easy for our community to share puzzles that are no longer wanted. How does it work? - Bring a puzzle exchange. You may: swap one puzzle or donate a puzzle without swapping. When you are finished with the puzzle, you can: keep it forever, return it to swap for a different puzzle, return it with no swap.
Donated and returning puzzles and boxes should be in good condition and have all the pieces. Let us know if something is missing. The service is completely free. No library card or checkout necessary.
MAZOMANIE COMMUNITY FOOD PANTRY
The library is a drop-off site for donations to the food pantry. Please, no perishable or frozen items. Paper goods and toiletries are also needed. The food pantry is open the 2nd and 4th Saturdays at the Mazomanie Community Building, 10:00 – 11:30 (masks are required to come inside). Your generosity is greatly appreciated.
