Travel the world—and the libraries of New Jersey—at Parsippany Library's Lake Hiawatha Branch this week 🌏 The library is celebrating International Children's Book Week with a little help from fellow members of the Main Library Alliance.

📚 36 libraries in Main contributed children's and YA books to a massive display at Lake Hiawatha as part of International Children's Book Week, an award-winning program developed by Children's Librarian Kellyanne Healey to celebrate books created by or first published in countries other than the United States.

🤝 Main libraries share their collections to expand users' access to millions of items, including books, e-books, audiobooks, movies, music, and video games. Cardholders at Main libraries can use their library card at 67 library locations.

🔍 Visit Lake Hiawatha to see how many different Main libraries' books you can find among the hundreds on display—and don't forget to check some out while you're there!
