Nell Verner & Darlene Brock
The Chilton Clanton Public Library said goodbye to a dear friend and coworker, Ms. Nell Verner. We celebrated Nell’s retirement last Tuesday with tasty food, many laughs, and some tears. She started the library in 2016 as a library clerk and eventually migrated to book inspection and book repair. You can ask anyone at the library, and they will tell you that Ms. Nell is very dependable, friendly, has an excellent work ethic and is a superb cook. Darlene Brock says that “overall Nell is a terrific worker and kind friend who will be seriously missed at the library.” We wish you well on this next chapter in your life.

US Immigration Test Guide Materials
The Chilton Clanton Public Library now has a US Immigration test guide available for checkout. The materials include a welcome guide in English and Spanish, flash cards, the Citizens Almanac, copy of the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution of the United States, and Introduction to US History and Civics DVD & CD.
