With February’s reminder to appreciate our sweethearts, let’s take the time to ponder: who or what do we love? Count the ways!

At the Library, we love our community: parents bringing their children to storytime, grandpals picking up new picture books to read during school lunch, students coming for school assignments, creatives using the wifi for work projects. Our community is made up of seniors browsing the large print books, commuters picking up audiobooks, citizens using library computers, printer, and copier to work on taxes, out-of-town visitors finding treasures from the used book store.

We love that our Library is a welcoming place to read, to gather with friends, to support and enrich our community. What do you love about your Library?

Join the Friends of the Lindsborg Library

The Friends of the Lindsborg Library is looking for more volunteers to serve on the board!

If you would be interested in meeting 4-8 times a year to help plan co-sponsored library programs, fundraising, and community involvement, please attend our next meeting: Monday, February 20 at 7:00 PM at the Library.

Not able to attend? Not a problem! Contact Library Director Suzanna Swenson or Assistant Librarian Kathy McCord for more information about the Friends Board.

Movie Checkout Experience will soon be Smoother!

The Library is transitioning to storing DVDs in their cases on the racks rather than behind the desk! We hope that this will result in an easier checkout experience, especially for patrons who are borrowing multiple titles or TV series with multiple discs. We plan on continuing to use the notebooks for only Children’s DVDs.

Upcoming Events in February include:

Drop-in Storytime on Tuesday mornings 10 am-12 pm, February 7-28. Come-and-go or come-and-stay for this program of guided play, reading, music, and more designed for families with children age 5 and younger.

LEGO Club on Thursday afternoons 4-5pm February 2-23. Join our hour long program to flex your creative & engineering muscles! Bricks are provided by the Library… just bring your imagination!

Join us for Community Conversations about the Library Board’s current discussion about a possible library building remodel and/or expansion project. When you envision a library building that best serves the needs for our community, what features do you imagine? We want to know your thoughts!

Join us in person at the Library for a 90 minute conversation about the Library Board’s current plans along with opportunities to ask questions and give input on what you would like to see remain or improve about the Library building. The agenda will be the same at both sessions: Thursday, February 23 at 7:00 PM and Saturday, February 25 at 10:30 AM. Flyers and hard copies of surveys are available now at the Library.

If you can’t make it to an event, you are always welcome to visit the Library when it best suits your schedule – we will have come-and-go style fun available when you visit!
