Maple Lake Library

Maple Lake Library It takes a community to create a library; our community turned this dream into a reality. It does not receive any state funding.

Located in the heart of cozy downtown Maple Lake, we are proud to serve the Wright County area. The Maple Lake Library is an independent library that is operated completely by volunteers and funded by donations.

☁️📚 Mini STEM Thursday is floating in!

Did you know a cloud can weigh more than a million pounds?! 🤯☁️ It may look light and fluffy from the ground, but all those tiny water droplets add up!

And since we’re looking to the skies, this week’s book pairing is Fly Girls by Keith O’Brien ✈️ — the story of the daring women who raced airplanes, broke barriers, and claimed their place in aviation history.

☁️ Question of the week: If you could fly anywhere in the world today, where would you go?

📚🌦️ This week’s reading forecast is in!

We’re seeing a little bit of everything over Maple Lake this week: a warm front of romance, a storm of thrillers, plenty of heartfelt conditions, and some seriously suspicious skies. 🔎⛈️💚

By the weekend? Mostly cozy with scattered reading breaks and an extremely high chance of saying, “Okay… just ONE more chapter.” 😌📖

🧖📚 It’s time for a little Shelf-Care!

Self-care doesn’t have to mean an elaborate routine. Sometimes it’s drinking some water, putting your phone down, listening to your favorite music, or curling up with a really good book. 💚

See how many spaces you can check off on our Shelf-Care Bingo! And yes, “visit a library” absolutely counts as self-care. We don’t make the rules. 😉

✨ How many can you get this week?
📚 Bonus points if your bingo includes a trip to Maple Lake Library!

🐢 Mini STEM Thursday! 🌎🧭

How do sea turtles know where they’re going when there aren’t exactly road signs under the ocean? 🌊

Some aquatic animals can sense Earth’s magnetic field and use it almost like a built-in compass to help navigate during incredible journeys.

📚 This week’s STEM fact pairs perfectly with Remarkably Bright Creatures by Shelby Van Pelt—a story full of ocean life, unexpected connections, and finding where you belong.

💭 If you had a built-in compass like a sea turtle, where would it take you?
