WE ARE FULLY OPEN! REGULAR HOURS!

No appointment necessary!

Masks are required again at Jeudevine Library.

If you do not have a mask, we can give you one. Cases of the Delta variant of COVID 19 have risen in Vermont. The Delta variant is much more contagious and even vaccinated people are getting sick, though usually not as sick as unvaccinated people.

We regret this but the Staff and the Library Board feel that it is safer for all our library users if everyone masks up!

Thank you!

Chromebooks Now Available to Check Out!

The Jeudevine Library got a VT Community Foundation Connectivity Grant and is happy to announce that we now have five Chromebooks available for you to check out for 2 week periods! These Chromebooks are best suited for online environments from streaming your favorite shows, to writing a paper for school on Google Docs. If you don’t have the internet at home but would like access to things like word processing or spreadsheets, we’d be happy to help you set up your Google Drive account to continue your work offline. You can also check with your cellphone service provider about turning your phone into a Wi-Fi Hotspot, or use any public Wi-Fi connection – the Jeudevine Library’s is available 24/7!

To check out a Chromebook, you’ll need to be 18 years old, have a library account in good standing and have a state-issued ID to show us (such as a driver’s license or non-driver ID). Everything needed to hit the ground running is included, but please don’t hesitate to ask us for help!

For more information:

Call us at 472-5948, email us at jeudevinelibrary@hardwickvt.org, or swing by in person!

Community Connectivity

With so many of us in seclusion for our own safety and the safety of us all, how can we find strength in each other?

The Vermont Folklife Center believes that a pathway through anxiety, fear and uncertainty lies as much in the act of listening as it does in the act of telling one’s story.

Listening in Place focuses on two responses to the COVID-19 emergency: the creation of a crowd-sourced Sound Archive to document our daily experiences during the pandemic, and a series of online Virtual Story Circles, where Vermonters can gather remotely to listen and share during these truly challenging times.
