Reserved Study Space in the Library (temporarily on hold due to HVAC issues)

We know teens need quiet space to study, meet with groups and get homework done. That's why we reserve our meeting rooms a few times per month just for teen study groups. Whether you need a place to meet to work on a class project after school hours, you want to help out a friend, or just get your own homework done, you are welcome to use these reserved rooms.

If you need a place to work outside of reserved study group hours, the library is always a great place to work. Come by and claim a table anytime we're open. We're happy to see you!

Sunlight to read by

Spring is sprouting with colorful blossoms and lingering evening sunlight. It's a great time to shake off the cold weather cobwebs and get outdoors.  

Take a walk to the library to check out a book, and use the natural light to read a little longer. You can browse our full catalog from anywhere. If you'll be out getting some exercise, try downloading an audiobook to keep you going. You can even stream music from Hoopla to add a little rhythm to your day. If you're suffering from cabin fever, the library is a great place to visit, no matter the weather. Come inside and be greeted with a smile from our welcoming staff, ask a librarian for help finding information or materials, or just pick your favorite nook to do some quiet reading or work.

There's so much to do at your local library. Mark down dates from our Calendar to add to yours. Join us!
