The Library will be closed on Monday, May 27th in observance of Memorial Day.
Now on display at the Bristol Public Library is a very unusual collection of Russian samovars, belonging to Judi Sheridan of North Bloomfield. Samovars are metal containers traditionally used to heat and boil water.
Since heated water is usually used to make tea, a samovar has an attachment on the top of its lid to hold and heat a teapot filled with a tea concentrate. The antiques on display were typically used in and around Russia, European countries, as well as the Middle East.
In consideration of the safety of our patrons and staff the library will close at Noon on Monday, April 8th due to the Total Solar Eclipse.
*When the Bristol Local School System is closed or delayed due to severe weather conditions, the Bristol Public Library will operate on a 2 hour delay.

*If the library is closed, no fines will be assessed on that day.
The CLEVNET app will be down for the foreseeable future. The owner of the mobile application and the vendor that controls access to the app are different. Unfortunately, the vendor unexpectedly disabled the app, rendering it inoperable. An entirely new, next-generation mobile app for CLEVNET is in the works, but it is not yet available.
A blow out DVD sale is going on in the foyer of the library. All DVDs are $1.00 each and all the proceeds go to the Friends of the Library. The Friends provide for many of the programs, including the upcoming concert on the lawn.
