It's Bring a Friend to the Library Day!


Come celebrate our fun-filled, totally made up holiday, as part of the Adult Summer Reading Challenge! Bring a friend to the library, snap a memory at our photobooth with our polaroid camera, and help them sign up for a library card on the spot (if they don't already have one).


Enjoy delicious treats from XOCO Westcoast Chocolates and drop off your completed challenge sheets while you're here.


We can’t wait to see you and your friends!
