Happy 4th of July!



Your Garland County Library will be closed on the fourth and fifth of July in observance of our nation's 234th birthday.

Whatever your planning, we've got the information to make your Independence Day celebration a success. Looking for books on grilling? Check out our non-fiction section under 641.5784. Planning on going out on the lake? We've got books on sailing (797.1), kayaking (797.122), and water safety (363.14). If you're anything like me, (accident prone yet still planning on setting off some of those near weapons-grade fireworks) it might be a good idea to check out 616.0252 to see what we have in the first aid category.

If you've got a long weekend, you might want to read up on some American history or one of our founding fathers. From the major figures like Ben Franklin and Thomas Jefferson to the more obscure like Button Gwinnett and Elbridge Gerry, the library has something for everybody. In addition to books, the library has a veritable smorgasbord of dvd and video documentaries about the Revolutionary War and early American history.

So be safe, have fun, and we'll see you all on the 6th.
