๐ A Heartfelt Thank You! ๐
A huge THANK YOU to everyone who joined us for our picnic at the Kenilworth Library last night! ๐ณ๐ Your presence made the event truly special, and we couldnโt have done it without the support of our incredible sponsors, the dedicated library board, and our wonderful patrons. ๐๐
Weโre already looking ahead to next yearโs exciting milestoneโthe 75th anniversary of the opening of the Kenilworth Library! ๐๐ Weโre starting to work on preparations to make it a celebration to remember, but today, weโre taking a well-deserved rest and soaking in the joy from last nightโs event.
We hope you all enjoyed the evening as much as we did. Hereโs to many more wonderful events together!

Reaction Wednesday asks
#ReactionWednesday knows that an essential part of getting ready for the day is making sure to select just the right cardigan. Failure to do so, while never fatal, can lead to confusion. What is a part of your daily routine that is so essential that you may feel lost without it?
Reaction Wednesday
As #ReactionWednesday works to clear the umpteenth paper jam of the day, it causes them to wonder how much we take technology for granted (when it works) what technological device first filled you with that sense of wonder, that feeling of "I can't believe it!" let us know in the comments

It's a snow day, what are you going to do?
#ReactionWednesday ruminates on our current weather situation while walking to and from the library uphill both ways. When you have a stuck at home snow day, what do you do? The lines at the grocery store causes me to think many of us make french toast. Perhaps you find it a good reason to sit and tackle your "to be read" pile, tackle that housecleaning project you've been putting off forever, or maybe build a snowman? Let us know in the comments.
