Spring into Reading! As the days grow longer and the landscape starts bloom, there’s no better time to pick up a good book. Spring is a season of renewal, making it the perfect opportunity to refresh your reading list, explore new ideas, and embrace the joy of lifelong learning.
 
Reading outdoors, whether in a park, on a patio, or under a tree, allows you to soak up the sunshine while immersing yourself in new adventures. Stop by our ADA accessible patio near our Free Little Library, there's benches along the hill, or find a good spot indoors and sit near an open window and enjoy the breeze. Books can also provide a mindful escape, helping to reduce stress and inspire creativity during this season of growth.
 
In addition to reading, we have a variety of programs to transition into Spring with a spring-themed Story Time and Craft on April 5th, a Pollinator-themed program on April 19th sponsored by the Conservation Commission and an Earth Day performance on April 26th. In May, we have Free Comic Book Day/Star Wars Day and other great events leading up to our annual Summer Reading Program.
 
Visit the library this spring to discover fresh titles, join our book clubs, explore our outdoor reading spaces and learn about upcoming programs. Let’s celebrate the season by turning the page to new possibilities!
