We're back! Hope you have all had a chance to dry out and are ready for the week!

We'll be at the Harvey Government Center, 1200 Truman Ave., on the second floor from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Tuesday-Friday this week.

And we've got a full slate of programs at Bernstein Park on Stock Island -- that's at the corner of Fifth Street and Fifth Avenue. On Wednesday at 10 a.m., we've got Adult Crafting Corner. On Thursday at 3 p.m. it's crafts for the kids with Once Upon A Craft - we're painting Halloween decor!

And on Friday at 11 a.m. it's time for the littles with a Halloween theme. We'll be reading "I Am A Witch's Cat" and making kitten's first full moon as a craft.

As always, you can get eBooks, audiobooks, streaming video, streaming music, and much more from our online 24/7 e-library any time.
