The Archer Public Library is excited to announce an update to the e-book services provided through the E-Read Texas Program at the Texas State Library and Archives Commission. Starting October 1st, we will transition from the e-book platform SimplyE to the new e-book platform Boundless. This change will not affect Libby. Boundless offers many new features, including reading achievement badges, larger checkout limits, and social sharing features. With Boundless and Libby, library patrons can check out e-books and audiobooks for free, enabling them to enjoy the library on the go, adjust the font size of their favorite books with a touch, or listen to books while multitasking. Come by the library if you'd like help setting up or using Boundless or Libby; we're always happy to help! ************** She said yes to Morelli. She said yes to Ranger.

Grace and peace to you from our Lord, Jesus Christ and our Father in heaven. This week we gather with family and/or friends to celebrate, Thanksgiving, an American institution for many decades, and a day of food, football and for me most of all thankfulness to God for all he provides.
