Dartmouth Board of Library Trustees approves 2026 holiday schedule and computer upgrades. The trustees unanimously approved the 2026 holiday calendar, closing both Southworth and North Branch libraries on July 3-4 and June 19-20. The board also unanimously approved a $6,638.04 purchase for six North Branch staff computers, to be completed by month's end.
