Circulating Telescope

Orion Starblast 4.5" Telescope

Thanks to the Friends of the Cumberland Library, the Library is now circulating a fully functional telescope. This is easy-to-use telescope kit includes a book of constellations and a copy of 50 Things to See with a Small Telescope.

This is a great way to try out amateur astronomy without the cost.
