Today is National Librarian Day!
Librarians do so much more than check-out and shelve books.
Librarians curate the collections under their care, repair items, plan and host programs, teach classes, and so much more. Their role is constantly evolving to include new technology and responding to social needs in their communities. Give a shout-out to your local librarian today in recognition of all they do in providing much needed services to their communities.

The Fayette County 4-H Citizenship Group is working on a citizenship project and need your help!
We are a drop-off location for their Stuffed Animal Donation Drive. Donations will be used by local first responders and ERs to help comfort children who are dealing with difficult situations.
Stuffed animals may be dropped off during regular library hours and must be clean, gently used with no rips or stains, and in good condition.
