National Library Week: April 7-13
Warren Public Library encourages all community members to visit the library during National Library Week, April 7-13, to explore all we have to offer.
Most people know about the wealth of stories available at the library, from picture books and large print to audiobooks and ebooks, but there's so much more to the story of libraries.
Libraries are welcoming spaces that bring communities together for entertainment, education, and connection through book clubs, story times, movie nights, crafting classes, lectures, and more. Warren Public Library offers a wide array of programs, classes and resources, including Toddler Time, genealogy research, and a brand new Teen Space!
Tuesday, April 9 is Patron Appreciation Day. Stop by for some goodies!
