Dear Communities, 

The Board of the Carbon County Library System would like to share what is happening with funding and the future of our libraries. Although we all wish that we could go back and change the path we are currently on, the reality is that with reduced funding comes reduced services. But you can help us bring those services back!  But first, let’s look at the numbers.  

To The Editor

Dear Editor,

While it will be mostly over before this letter is printed, this week, April 19-25, is designated as National Library Week. The theme for this year is “Find Your Joy.” For many, including me, just walking into a library sparks joy. No matter how often I do it, I am always overcome by a sense of possibility. I can go anywhere and do anything vicariously through a book. I can learn new things and enrich my life. It is exciting!  

Dear Editor,

As your local Postmaster, I want to share a few insider tips to help make your holiday mailing smooth and stress-free. Every year, we see the same challenge: customers wait until the last minute, and the rush makes things harder for everyone. My best advice? Ship early — don’t wait.

For expected delivery before December 25 within the contiguous United States, here are the recommended mailing dates:

Dear Editor,

We are overwhelmed with gratitude for the support we have received from generous people and organizations like you during this difficult time. Thank you!

Dear Editor,

As we approach Veterans Day, we are often reminded to “thank a veteran for their service.” While this gesture is deeply appreciated by many of us who have served, I have come to realize that for some veterans, those words do not carry quite the same meaning. It is not that they are ungrateful for the recognition, but rather that something else would go so much further in truly honoring their service and sacrifice.

There’s a saying:

Dear Editor,

People have asked why the Wyoming REALTORS are backing Amendment A. The answer is straightforward: We believe in homeownership and will always support any effort to keep people in their homes.

To the editor:

While in Saratoga for the night, I picked up the local paper and what do you know, it was a real, true, locally-produced and written piece of journalism. I was shocked! To read actual articles written by real reporters like Armstrong, Schricker and Davis -- as well as other local contributors.
