Have you noticed the blue pinwheels whirring away as you drive by or stop in at the library?

April is National Child Abuse Prevention month and in recognition of this important event the library has displayed blue pinwheels in and outside the library.  You can check out the link below to find out more information.

It is National Library Week (April 14-20)!!  It’s a time when we recognize and celebrate all the wonderful offerings that local libraries offer to their communities.  Just a few of those for the Eudora Public Library are public internet/computer access, books, e-books (including Kindle), movies, copying/faxing, story times, and summer reading events!  We are connected with approximately 40 libraries in Northeast Kansas and typically if we don’t have what you are looking for, we can get it for you through our courier/inter-library loan service!  This is a fast and free service to the public!  Check out the below link for more information about National Library Week.

Many of our nation’s school libraries are hurting!  Please donate your time, money, and/or gently used (or new!!!) children’s/teen books to our local school libraries!!!
