| NEW Children's Area Now Open
What does a castle, a giant lite brite, a reading rocket ship, a hobbit hole, DUPLOs, and books all have in common? They can all be found in the new children's area on the second floor! We're so excited about this new space, and we know kids are going to be over the moon! Next time you come to the library, bring your kids, and plan to stay awhile. Check it out! |
