Summer is definitely here, and with temps near or at 100 degrees, we know that some folk's A/C may not keep up. Just a reminder that the "coolest place in town" (YOUR Library) is literally the COOLEST place in town. We keep it nice and cool in here. So if you need a place to just "chill" out, stop on in!

Did you know one of the best places to watch the parade is at YOUR Library? We'll have chairs available for anyone who wants to sit in the shade on the South side of the library in the shade of the tree available by 915am. For those who prefer to watch from their vehicle, park in our parking lot facing your vehicle towards either the north or the south. We look forward to seeing you!
