Registered therapy dogs and their volunteer owners visit the Library to spend time one-on-one with participants.&nbsp;Space is limited and registration is required!
School-age children can practice reading with one of the dogs, if they wish. Why read to dogs? Most children have a natural affinity for and bond with dogs, and because dogs are non-judgmental, children are less self-conscious while reading aloud to them. Children can improve their reading skills in a fun and relaxed atmosphere, while enhancing self-esteem, motivating speech, and building confidence. Reading to a therapy dog can decrease stress and anxiety in general, and specifically while reading aloud in front of other human listeners! If children associate reading with struggle, worry, or embarrassment, this is a chance to create new and pleasant associations with reading instead!
For anyone of any age who wants to spend time with a dog without reading, that’s fine too! Time spent with the dog can simply be to get comfortable and less fearful around a dog in a safe environment, or to just to ease the stress of life by petting a loving companion.
Registration will be available on this page beginning one week in advance.

At Alderfer Auction, we believe that every object has a story, and every life transition deserves a steady, compassionate hand. That is why we are incredibly proud to highlight the expertise of Annette, our Business Development and Estate Sales specialist, who holds the prestigious Certified Senior Advisor (CSA)&reg; designation. While many know Alderfer Auction for our expertise in fine art, collectibles, and real estate, Annette&rsquo;s certification adds a vital layer of support for our clients&mdash;specifically older adults and their families navigating the complexities of downsizing.
What is a Certified Senior Advisor (CSA)?
The CSA is the leading certification for professionals serving older adults. It is not simply a title; it is a commitment to a higher standard of service. To earn this credential, Annette passed a rigorous exam demonstrating advanced knowledge in the multi-disciplinary processes of aging. More importantly, being a CSA means upholding the highest ethical standards for the benefit and protection of the health and welfare of seniors. This certification is dually accredited by the ANSI National Accreditation Board (ANAB) and the National Commission for Certifying Agencies (NCCA), ensuring that the advice and resources provided are of the highest caliber. 
More Than Just "Selling Stuff" 
For many families, the most daunting question during a move is: "What do I do with all my stuff?" . Annette&rsquo;s background in senior living sales and admissions, combined with her CSA training, allows her to look beyond the inventory. She understands the mental and physical stress that a life transition can place on a senior and their loved ones. Her approach is rooted in: 
<ul>
 <li>Compassion: Recognizing the emotional weight of parting with a lifelong collection. </li>
 <li>Education: Helping families navigate the "maze" of personal property. </li>
 <li>Strategy: Devising a clear, actionable plan on whether to sell, keep, toss, or donate belongings. </li>
</ul>
A Unique Blend of Professionalism and Passion 
Annette brings over 30 years of experience in sales, marketing, and business development to our team. Yet, it is her personal touch that truly sets her apart. As a lifelong lover of art and an active volunteer with "Art Goes to School" and the North Penn Arts Alliance, she treats every antique and family heirloom with the respect it deserves. By combining her deep knowledge of the auction industry with her CSA-certified understanding of the aging process, Annette ensures that Alderfer Auction provides more than just a sale&mdash;we provide a solution. 
How We Can Help 
Whether you are an individual looking to downsize or a family member helping a loved one through a transition, Annette and the Alderfer team are here to provide: 
<ul>
 <li>Professional Appraisals </li>
 <li>Downsizing and Estate Sale Services </li>
 <li>Full Liquidation and Auction Services </li>
 <li>Real Estate Solutions </li>
</ul>
Transitions are never easy, but with the right advisor by your side, they can be handled with dignity, expertise, and peace of mind.

The Grundy Museum is a historic house museum located at 610

Grundy Museum

Take a Free Tour of a Victorian Splendor on the Delaware! The Grundy Museum is a jewel of historic house museums on the banks of the Delaware River in Historic Bristol Borough. Fully restored from 2018-2025 and features rooms decorated in different styles spanning the Rococo Revival to the Aesthetic Movement to the Edwardian period, the Museum was awarded the Victorian Society in America Award for the exemplary restoration and rehabilitation. This landmark preserves the legacy of the Grundy family and offers visitors a unique glimpse into life during the Victorian Era. The Museum’s extensive collection is highly unusual for a historic house museum as almost all the items belonged to the Grundy family. The museum serves as a cultural destination for those interested in antiques, local history, and architecture. Docents take visitors through the meticulously restored rooms, showcasing the elaborate furnishings and sharing stories of the Grundy family’s contributions to Bristol Borough, Pennsylvania, and national affairs. Visitors can also enjoy the expansive gardens and riverfront vistas. Visit throughout the year for special programs, exhibits, and holiday events, including the annual Victorian Holiday House.
