Looking for a fun way to support your library? 🏃📚 Come chat with local runners and share information about library programs and services, as well as help answer questions from out-of-town visitors about pre/post-race restaurants or family-friendly activities.

Check out shifts available via our volunteer portal (password is LibraryFriends).

We also need volunteers to help set up the table before the first shift on Friday, and also to break down and pack-up the table materials after the last evening shift on Saturday. Please email Carrie Bretz ([email protected]) for more info!

We can't wait to see you! 🤓

🥐 We’re grateful for the sponsors and partners who support the Monterey Public Library Friends & Foundation. This month we’re featuring acclaimed pastry chef Michelle Lee, sous chef at InterContinental The Clement Monterey.

🥐 Known for her inventive, globally inspired desserts, Michelle’s passion for food began early and was shaped by her culinary training at the New England Culinary Institute. After working in top kitchens nationwide, she returned to the Monterey Peninsula in 2015. Michelle's creative desserts are showcased at C restaurant + bar overlooking Monterey Bay.

🥐 We thank Michelle and the InterContinental team for their continued support of our library community!
