Snow Day is Coming!
No, we're not talking about a weather forecast that changed drastically. It still looks to be a rainy weekend in the Lancaster, PA area, but there will be a little bit of snow at the library on Monday, when we celebrate the fact that many children are off from school because of the Martin Luther King holiday by opening our doors to a special day of programming, from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., including movies, board games, activities, and even a virtual snow ball fight. No registration is needed for this program, so we invite you to visit us on Monday.

Teen Center: In Use
These teens hang out after school one day in their new corner of the library:
The coolest thing is that small changes continue to happen on a regular basis as we keep working to improve the teen center! Check back to the blog for the newest pictures as furniture and some other goodies arrive in the months ahead.
Tomorrow, we'll share pictures from another big library event in December!
