Unlimited Possibilities @Your Library:
Celebrate National Library Week April 12-18
Mundy Branch joins libraries in schools and communities
nationwide in celebrating National Library Week, a time to
highlight the changing role of libraries, librarians and library
workers. Libraries today are more than warehouses for
books. Instead, libraries and librarians are change agents
within their communities – transforming lives through
innovative educational resources and forward-thinking
programming. Whatever your interest or need, Mundy
Branch strives to be a place of unlimited possibilities, with
the staff and resources to help you accomplish your goals
and dreams.
