As a reminder, the library will be closed tomorrow (5/29) in observance of Memorial Day. Our regular hours will resume Tuesday (5/30) with doors opening at noon.
As always, keep an eye out for upcoming events for children, adults, and families throughout June and the summer months to come!
Jesse, who is one of our top and most frequent puzzle piecers, celebrated his 40th birthday yesterday! To join the festivities, we thought we’d help him celebrate at a place he spends so many of his mornings and afternoons doing something he loves. Happy Birthday Jesse! 🥳🎂🎉
We would like to thank Lorena Kutza and Shayla Nowakoski of Great Dane for volunteering at the library this morning! Lorena and Shayla took on a lead role during our weekly Preschool Storytime & Movement program by reading “Can I Join Your Club?” by John Kelly.
In addition to reading the story, our volunteers also donated coloring books and crayons on behalf of Great Dane. Thank you again to our volunteers and Great Dane’s thoughtful donation of coloring materials!
Thank you to Bloomsburg Theatre Ensemble for bringing a performance of “Park Protectors: The Story of the Buffalo Soldiers and the National Park Service” to our library this morning!
Audience members were treated to the young talents of BTE performers Brian Bond, Gabe Moses, and Meagon Williams as they brought the story of the Buffalo Soldiers to life along with this often overlooked time period’s historical significance and its lasting legacy. Once again, thank you to the talented performers and the BTE organization for all that you do!

We would like to thank everyone at Tiny Tech Preschool for hosting an extra special story time with us today! We read “Dog Gone” which is a book all about making new friends. After our story we sang and danced, crafted dog puppets to take home, and of course wrapped up with a yummy snack. Once again, thank you to the folks at Tiny Tech for inviting us and we hope to see you all again next year!
There was an infestation of solar bugs last night at the library! Whether you chose to make a ladybug or beetle, once you feed your little creature some sun they will be crawling around before you know it.
