Sometimes the best ideas come from the heart ❤️ Inspired by one of our own staff member's journeys into parenthood, we've added a little extra magic to our library.

We are thrilled to officially unveil our new Mamava Lactation Pod! This private, comfortable suite is a necessary upgrade to ensure every growing family feels supported and welcome.

A huge thank you to the Manhattan Library Foundation for making this possible and for the support of the Kansas Breastfeeding Coalition, Inc.
