Celebrate EMS Week with us by making a life-saving donation at the Belgrade Community Library's first-ever blood drive this Friday, May 22, from 12:30 to 5 PM! 🩸

Register here: https://www.redcrossblood.org/give.html/drive-results?zipSponsor=BELGRADELIBRARY We need to fill our final three whole blood and four Power Red appointments.

Every two seconds, someone in the U.S. needs blood. Blood and platelets cannot be manufactured; they can only come from volunteer donors. Every day, blood donors help patients of all ages: accident and burn victims, heart surgery and organ transplant patients, and those battling cancer. You could help save a life!

Join us for the Life-Saving Skills Series on Thursday, May 21, from 6 to 8 p.m. for STOP THE BLEED® Day.

Bozeman Health Trauma Team and Central Valley Fire District are offering a free training for teens and adults during EMS Week. Participants will learn basic hemorrhage control skills that can help save a life before emergency responders arrive. Bleeding is the leading cause of preventable death after trauma, and this training provides practical skills anyone can use in an emergency.

No medical background is required. The course is open to anyone ages 12 and older. Younger participants may attend with parental permission.

We would also like to thank our Life-Saving Skills Series partners, including Backcountry Medical Supplies, Belgrade Police Department, Bozeman Health, Central Valley Fire District, and the Gallatin County Sheriff's Office, for helping make these trainings possible.

What is a silent book club? The easiest book club you'll ever join! There's no designated book to read and no discussion. Just drop by the library with something you've been meaning to catch up on and read alongside like-minded peers!

Every Monday 4-6 PM in the teen lounge, excluding holidays.

Attention, community members, we still have plenty of slots open for our Moms vs. Teens event! Celebrate Mother's Day with this laid-back Smash Bros. tournament courtesy of the Belgrade Library, MC'd by local nerd Miss Rebecca.

See who has what it takes to be the real MVP and maybe win a trophy in the process (yes, there are actual trophies)!
