February is Library Lovers Month! This month celebrates YOU and your love for the library! Tell us why you love the library—whether it is because you were able to study in silence for that big test, it is where you found your next big adventure in that thrill-seeking book, you saved hundreds by using the resources at the library, or you used the computers to help you score that amazing job! This month, be sure to tell your community and elected officials why you LOVE the library and why it is important in your life. 
Every year, children and teens across Mississippi are encouraged to vote for their favorite books in the Magnolia Book Award, with titles grouped into four age categories. Voting takes place in February, so be sure to visit your local library to check out these books and cast your vote! This event aims to foster a love for reading and connect young readers with contemporary literature. Click here to see the nominated books for the year! Community Events: The Magee Mardi Gras parade and block party is scheduled for Thursday, February 12, 2026. The event typically runs from 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM along Main Avenue. |

Friends of the Magee Public Library will have their bi-monthly meeting on Thursday, February 5, at 1:30 p.m. in the meeting room. They will discuss fundraisers, Library Appreciation Week, and Summer Library Programs. Color Me Calm Saturday, February 14 at 10 a.m. Color until you feel peace and calmness.  Tuesday, February 10, at 12:30 p.m. We will eat a potluck lunch and discuss the book "The Wedding People" by Alison Espach. A propulsive and uncommonly wise novel about one unexpected wedding guest and the surprising people who help her start anew. In turns absurdly funny and devastatingly tender, Alison Espach’s The Wedding People is ultimately an incredibly nuanced and resonant look at the winding paths we can take to places we never imagined—and the chance encounters it sometimes takes to reroute us.-Goodreads.com |
