We’re Going (Mostly) Fine Free!

Thanks to a generous donation from Tom Schiano at Mama’s and Cafe Baci we are eliminating fines on most items in our collection, starting November 1. This comes after we eliminated fines on children’s items after a donation from Man Skirt Brewing in June.

Go grab some delicious food and thank Tom at Mama’s for his service to the community!

Celebrate Dino-vember with us!

Roberta will discuss her work as a field paleontologist and guide attendees through her story of discovering dinosaurs. She will be bringing cool fossils with her, including “Mr. Nixon,” an 8-foot Triceratops skull discovered by her team in 1996.

Part game show, part magic show, Roberta’s program will delight all who attend!
