Lots Going on at KML!

Summer is often synonymous with activity— whether it’s a packed calendar of family vacations, outdoor adventures, or simply longer days spent doing things we love. For many of us, it’s a time to break free from our mundane routines and dive into more exciting experiences. For the library, it is also the time when we are at our busiest!

Therefore, it seems fitting to take some time to reflect on all the amazing things that happened at the library during the past few months. The highlight of summer at the library, by far, is our Summer Reading program. Did you know that this program is not limited to kids? In fact, we have one for adults too. Let’s take a look at some super Summer Reading stats!

In total, we had 1,205 Summer Reading Participants of all ages! We gave out 3,503 raffle tickets for 41 prize baskets. Some of our most notable programs were the Kids’ Room Mystery, Polymer Clay Sculptures, Shark Slime, a Kombucha Presentation, and the Adult Summer Reading Wrap-Up Party.

As you can probably imagine, after a hectic and fast-paced summer, the arrival of fall offers a welcome opportunity for library staff to reset and begin working on our fall and winter programming. We are hard at work planning some exciting things for the upcoming months. I highly recommended keeping an eye on our social media feeds to see what we have in store this fall!
