Lots to do during spring break at Library

Greetings Library family.

Things keep improving around here as parents and children alike collectively admire the re-imagined Children's library area, where parents can now browse nearby while young children enjoy easier-to-reach book shelves. More changes to come so stay tuned!

The Optimist Club will be holding their Third Thursday meeting at 6 p.m. on Thursday, March 15, in the Library's Community Room. This meeting will be open to the public and we strongly encourage you to attend and, if possible, join this fantastic organization as they strive to help the community. This week's guest speaker will be Robin A. Mizell, District Director from Arkansas Attorney General Leslie Rutledge's office.

On Saturday, March 17, we'll kick off the spring break week as we celebrate St. Patrick's Day with holiday reads and crafts for children at 11 a.m. Please stop by and see all of the activities will be offering each day throughout the week! Partake of some delicious popcorn from our new popcorn machine, recently donated by The Friends of the Library, while you take a browse our selection of Books, DVDs, puzzles, games, etc.
