We've got a "⭐⭐⭐1/2" review from Young Critic Jadeyn for The Space Between Before & After by Sue Stauffacher!

📖:"When 10-year-old Thomas's mother, who suffers from depression, disappears, he creates a fantasy narrative in which his mother is safe and sets in motion a path of healing, not just for himself, but for his father and aunt as well."

Hi, it's us again, your local public library, with another parking lot update....

The parking lot will REOPEN on Monday, June 1st! We're very excited to have a parking lot back and we know you are too. Thank you so much for your patience during this project.

Here are some reminders for the week ahead:
•We have reopened the outdoor book drops, they are available for walk-up returns.
• All holds that are currently on our shelves have been extended until Friday, May 29th.
• If you cannot make it into the library to pick up your holds, call the library at 608-825-7323 and set up an appointment with staff to pick-up items at Sheehan Park.
• Keep in mind that Sun Prairie items have no daily overdue fines, so it's okay to turn them in late!
•Our Ribbon Cutting Ceremony is this Friday, May 29 at 8:30am! A limited number of parking spots will be open at the overflow VFW parking lot on Friday morning for our Ribbon Cutting Ceremony. We ask that these spots be reserved for our patrons with limited mobility, and all others park at Sheehan Park. The overflow lot is near the VFW Memorial, on Sunfield Street and can be accessed via S. Walker Way.
