The Library Concierge Program is sponsoring tours of the branch libraries during the first and second weeks of December. We have created signups for the tours on the LCP Coursework project site so the tour leaders will know how many to expect for each tour. Some of the branches have limited signups for each tour. Please signup as soon as possible to secure your favorite spot.

All libraries are closed Thursday, November 22 and Friday, November 23. Many libraries have reduced hours on other days during Thanksgiving week.
