Construction Update
| Phase 2 of construction is rolling along! We now have the steel framing for the expansion up. Not even a Wisconsin winter can stop our progress towards a new and expanded library! |
|
|
Little Free Pantry
| Did you know that even during construction the Whitewater Public Library has a little free pantry? Located in our new entry way the little free pantry provides food for anyone in need, no questions asked. Feel free to help yourself to what you need. No need to ask staff or fill anything out to be able to take items. |

It's easy to participate in our Winter Reading Challenge! Stop by the library and pick up a bookmark anytime between January 13 - February 28. Fill in a circle for every 30 minutes you read or listen to a book. When all of the circles are filled, return to the library and claim your goodie bag!
All entries will go into a grand prize drawing for a gift basket. There will be two winners -- one for the children's category and one for the adult/teen category.
