Spring Is Here!

posted on - April 3, 2026

Spring is here! I always get a burst of energy when the seasons change, especially as we’re moving towards the warmer months, and it’s a good time to try and get caught up on all the chores that you let slide during rougher winter months.

 

The library may not seem like the most useful place when it comes to getting chores done, but we’re actually a terrific resource for any number of goals. Are you planning to do some gardening? Check out our terrific collection of gardening books, waiting for your perusal on the second floor; there’s also our seed library, where you can grab up to three seed packets per family, per week.

 

Going to do some home renovations? We’ve got a great selection of interior and domestic design books. Planning a trip? Our travel section is well-stocked with guides about places all around the world.

 

If you’re cleaning up around the house, why not put on a TV show in the background to keep you company? We’ve got plenty of old favorites to keep the quiet from getting to you. There’s also our excellent audiobook collection, if you want something more substantial to keep your ears busy while you work.

 

If all of this sounds a little too ambitious for you, relax; there are still plenty of great books and movies to get lost in, all waiting for your attention on the first and second floor. And I haven’t even mentioned all the exciting programs available to our patrons once summer reading kicks off. Rain or shine, it’s always a good day to visit the library.
