Each Monday in May, musicians shared their talents to give us mini-brain break!
Tips for smooth Senior Checkout
Seniors, if you have already turned in your books, bring a screenshot from your Library Account to the fast lane on Senior Check out day. Follow the instructions in the video below, or access instructions here.
Look for the Book Bike and MCAs in the 4th of July Parade!
The Redwood City Public library filled the book bike with free NEW books just in time for summer! Look for the book bike over the summer in the 4th of July parade in Redwood City. Are you clearing out your teen's bookshelf? Contact Ms. Snow to arrange for a summer book pick up of "used with love" books that you no longer want.
Books are due when you are done with them. Use the Book Drop if the Media Center is closed!
