NEW
COMPUTERS!
(Andy Jerue using one of the public computers
available at the Dowling Public Library.)
We now have 4 computers for public use at
the Dowling Public Library. Two new
computers were added in March. The new
computers were made possible through a
grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates
Foundation.  We have also purchased a
new wireless printer for each of the
computers to share. Stop by the library and
check them out.
