It’s time again for the Friends of CALS Used Book Sale! First and foremost, we want to assure everyone that the book sale is not going away. It will be moving (more on that later), but for now, the summer sale will take place in its usual home in the Main Library lower level.
CALS is inviting the public to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Hillary Rodham Clinton Children's Library & Learning Center with ten events that will take place from March through July. All events will be free and open to the public.
We love the holidays here at CALS and this time of the year you can’t step into a branch without tripping over a candy cane or running into a seasonal craft. This is not an exhaustive list of everything going on at CALS (you can find that here) but it’s everything that you need to be sure not to miss if you’re eager to don a Santa hat and throw back a little eggnog.
