Regular voting for the Library Property Tax Continuation will be held April 30th.  All parish registered voters are eligible to vote at their regular polling places.  The Proposition is to continue the existing library property tax for 15 years at 5.21 mills (the same rate that property tax payers currently pay).  This is a continuation of the existing tax, not an additional tax.  It is the only tax to fund the entire library system and all of its existing facilities (main library and five branch libraries).  There is no other tax that funds the library.  For more information, please see the informational flyers available at any of the library branches, or call 337.363.1369.

The Evangeline Genealogical and Historical Society will meet Saturday April 16 at the main library (Ville Platte) at 9:30 a.m.  Everybody is welcome.

Early voting for the Library Property Tax Continuation will be held at the courthouse from April 16 through 23rd.  There will be no voting on April 22nd due to Good Friday.  For more information, please contact the Registrar of Voters.

The Friends of the Library will meet Tuesday April 12 at 6 p.m. at the main library (Ville Platte).  Everybody is invited, and refreshments will be served.

The Evangeline Parish main library and all branches will be closed Tues., March 8th for Mardi Gras.  We wish everybody a safe and happy Mardi Gras.
