After much consideration, we are sad to announce that the Northside Children’s Community Library is permanently closing. The library has been a great asset to the Enos Park neighborhood for the last 14 years and served hundreds of children and families. We are so grateful for the support we have received from the community, volunteers, past coordinators, board members, and the Third Presbyterian Church members who saw a need in the neighborhood and provided the grant and the space for the library.

It has been an honor and a pleasure to serve the Enos Park community and we will treasure the relationships and memories made.

We plan to hold book giveaways in April. Please watch for those dates to be announced soon.
