SUMMER READING 2021 HAS BEGUN!
Our theme this year is Tails and Tales, and the summer will be full of critters of all shapes and sizes! You can now sign up from home. Read, attend library events, and accomplish missions to earn badges and prizes on our new online tracking software, READsquared. There is an app for that as well--find it in your app store--search for READsquared.
