📖 Takes no power:
Books galore! Puzzles! Comics! Non-fiction! And did we mention books?
🎧 Low power:
Ebooks! Audio books! Even free movie streaming (low power if you turn the lights out)
Our librarians are standing by hoping to connect you with the best thing you've never read.
Open till 6:00pm Friday and from 9:00am - 1:00pm on weekends. Using less power will help share the load and mean more people can get electricity when they need it.
Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.
While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.

-
36.6% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
62.6% No, I enjoy it

0.8% Other - I'll share below
