The Garland County Library kicks off fall the only way we know how – with free materials, services, and events for everyone in the family!
Using the library has never been easier with our digital branch and off-campus services like the bookmobile, remote lockers, and free delivery – but visiting the library in person is still top notch.
Come by and connect with your favorite librarian, load up on new materials, and take a stroll in the library’s new garden. Located on Banks Street in the upper parking lot, Garden County Library offers 40 raised gardening beds for the GCLibrary cardholders to ‘borrow’ and maintain on a seasonal basis.
Patrons can grow a variety of annual plants and are encouraged to let a small portion of each plant go to seed to help contribute to the growth of the seed library. Learn more about the community garden and park at www.gclibrary.com/grows.
A few more reasons to visit the library on and off campus this month:
– Humane Society Adoption Event for Seniors. 10/10 from 10 AM to 1 PM. All adoptions include current vaccinations, spay/neuter, and flea and tick treatment.
– Fish-O-Ween: A Fall Family Fun Festival- located at Family Park. 10/21 from 9 AM to 12 PM. All snacks and supplies will be offered on a first come basis.
– Bob Ross Painting Workshop on 10/28 beginning at 9 AM. Space is limited and registration is required.
Learn all about the library’s services and offerings at www.gclibrary.com, 501-623-4161, or visit the library in-person at 1427 Malvern Avenue in Hot Springs.
