Library Update

During COVID-19, the library opened access to all West Milwaukee residents to the Overdrive App which gives permission to use eBooks and audiobooks.  Milwaukee County Federate Library (MCFL)  made a recent correction to the settings on Overdrive which prevented access to eBooks and audiobooks for West Milwaukee library patrons since the service is not provided in the current contract.

MCFL has since agreed to open access to electronic resources for 2021 and we will work on an addendum to our contract to continue the service moving forward.  The MCFL Board will need to approve the access so there may a delay until early February before residents can again access the service.

Police Christmas Surprise

On Friday, December 18th, 2020 members of the West Milwaukee Police Department made a surprise toy drop at Just Like Mommy’s Day Care in the Village of West Milwaukee. Approximately 60 gifts were handed out to very excited little boys and girls. Officers later visited three Village family members and surprised them with a Christmas dinner and specially picked toys for their children. The entire event was made possible by the generous donations from the Village businesses and the WMPD officers who donated their time.
