October is Friends of the Library Month and on Tuesday, the Citrus County Board of County Commissioners thanked the Friends of the Citrus County Library System and Friends of the Homosassa Library for their dedicated fundraising efforts and support of our Citrus County Library System.

We're hoping that our Fall Book Sale - November 12-14 - will be our biggest sale ever!

This is what makes our Homosassa Library so special. The Open Sewing Lab this morning gave these kids a chance to create their own sewing projects! For many of them, this was their first time sewing - and the results were amazing!

Researchers at the University of Cambridge said that regardless of “what or how we read”, sitting down with a book is linked to improved health and problem solving.
Benefits include lowering stress and reducing the risk of dementia, and span all types of reading, from comic books to classic novels or hefty non-fiction.
So what's stopping you-- pick up that book and READ!

Fewer people are reading for pleasure, but getting lost in a good book has repeatedly been linked to substantial cognitive benefits
