Celebrate National Library Week at Springville Road Regional Branch Library Monday, April 4—Friday, April 8!

We are getting into the SPIRIT by dressing up each day and offering a variety of programming throughout the week. When you stop by, don't forget to fill out your "I Love My Library Because..." heart that will be displayed on our bulletin board in the lobby. We will also be handing out "I Love My Library" keychains to the first 100 people each day. 

National Library Week is a week to celebrate the role of libraries and librarians and the impact they have on their community through the services they provide. National Library Week began in 1958.
