As you may have heard, the Youth area is getting a glow up this summer! 👏 Come get a stack of books for your summer reading needs by 5pm today before the collection gets moved into the garage for the summer. But have no fear! All of our books will still be accessible all summer long! You can put them on hold individually or you can even fill out an online Materials Request Form and our lovely librarians will put together a group of books for you! (See our stories for the link). 📚 ❤️

Just a reminder that due to the collection and construction workers needing the garage, it will be closed to the public starting today until the remodel is done in early September. We thank you all for your patience and are so excited to welcome you all to a fresh and inviting youth area this fall!

We will have a temporary youth area set up in the Magazine Room and will continue to offer programs and services all summer long! If you want to AXOLOTL more questions, please see our FAQ page on our website at telluridelibrary.org or give us a call!

We hope to see you soon! Happy Summer everyone 🌞

Join us for a screening of Skateboard (1978, PG, 97 min.) at 5:30 on Tuesday at the library! It was the first feature film to depict the height of the 70s skateboard craze. Many refer to it as the Bad News Bears of the sport. It’s star studded cast includes Alan Garfield, 70s teen idol Leif Garrett, skateboarding legend Tony Alva, and iconic female freestyler and member of the Skateboarding Hall of Fame Ellen O’Neal. It’s also the first film Telluride local George Gage ever made! (George is also the founder of the legendary Billy Ball soft ball team. https://www.telluridenews.com/news/article_9e51bb36-e5b9-11eb-a7a7-d33552e6bfab.html)

This screening is free and open to the public, but a hat will be passed for donations to a fund to provide scholarships (or is is skaterships?) for kids who want to attend Telluride Skateboard Camp and could use a little financial help.
