The library will be closed Monday February 17 for Presidents’ Day.

Stop in any time from 9 to noon on Sat. Feb. 22 to learn more about this fun free program we are bringing in to the Germantown Library. Sign up children from birth through entering kindergarten. Get all the materials you need to track what you read and earn incentives along the way to reading 1000 books before kindergarten. Snacks provided too.

Join us for a “Snow Fun” story time on Wednesday, January 29 at 11am. Stories, games and a craft. This is a free event open to all children ages 1-5.

Come in to purchase a raffle ticket to support the library and possibly win this beautiful 25th anniversary quilt. You really have to see it with your own eyes to appreciate the beauty and craftsmanship. Tickets are $2 each or 3 for $5

Join us Thursday, January 16, any time from 1-8pm for an openhouse celebration to celebrate the library’s 25th anniversary. Refreshments will be served!
