New Director

As many of you already know, Iron Ridge recently hired a new director, Tiffany Brault. Tiffany is a recent graduate of Marian University of Fond du Lac, and she currently resides in Horicon. Tiffany is very excited to be working in Iron Ridge. She has enjoyed meeting many residents already, and hopes to meet many more in the future.

The library is now back to its regular hours. We are open Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 1:00 PM – 7:00 PM, Thursdays and Fridays from 1:00 PM – 6:00 PM, and Saturdays from 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM. We are closed Sundays and Mondays. If these times are not working for you, please let Tiffany know. If you cannot stop in, you can call the library at (920)-387-3637, send an email to ironridge@mwfls.org, or leave a comment here. We would be happy to try to adjust the library’s hours now that a new director is settling in, but we need your input!

December Library Hours

admin — Tue, 06 Dec 2011 18:30:35 +0000

As many of you know, Amy will be leaving as library director. She is staying to help during the transition, but as she has already started her new job, we will not have staffing for all regular library hours until a replacement is hired.

There will be some temporary changes to library hours during the month of December. We will be closed Tuesday the 13th and open on Monday the 12th from 10-2 instead. There will be shortened hours on Friday the 16th (10-2) and extended hours on Thursday the 15th (11-7) and Saturday the 17th (10-3). Our regular weekly story hours and movie showings will move to Thursdays for the remainder of the month. Any further changes will be posted here and in the library.

We appreciate your patience during this transition and hope to have a new library director in place soon.
