Spring Happenings
Weekly Programs will resume next week with our final session of the school year. After that, we'll take a break from programming to focus on planning for a big Summer Reading Program! We hope the weather will turn soon and you will be able to get outside and enjoy some sunshine. In the meantime, you are welcome to come to the library and play, read and meet up with friends. We love seeing happy kids and parents!
