Cold and Flu Season

With cold and flu season upon us, we just wanted to remind everyone about the importance of keeping germs at bay. While we love to share our books, we don't want to share germs! So, if you or your child(ren) aren't feeling well enough to go to school or work, please stay home instead of visiting the library. Thank you for your understanding. Stay healthy and happy reading!
