Earth Day: Earth Day at the Library

How is the Library Sustainable?

Here at the library we celebrate Earth Day every day.

Earth day is a celebration for our planet and its precious resources. By using the library to check out and return items, read e-books, stream videos, and more you are contributing to our work in creating a sustainable space.

Earth the Final Frontier.
