It’s the spookiest month of the year!
Check out our themed book displays, which are now packed with stories starring goblins, ghosts, and ghouls – and of course, plenty of Halloween tales for all ages.
National Hispanic Heritage Month officially runs from September 15th to October 15th, but we have our displays up now! Grab a book today to help us celebrate the incredibly diverse range of cultures and histories, as well as the past and continuing contributions, of our Hispanic / Latin American / Latino friends and neighbors.
Clark Memorial Library will be closed on Tuesday, July 4th, for Independence Day. We will open at 10:00 AM as usual on Wednesday, July 5th.
We hope you enjoy the holiday!
Have you seen our “All Together Now!” displays? We have books for Pride Month, Juneteenth and African American Music Appreciation Month, Flag Day, and National PTSD Awareness Month, as well as ones about the history of the United States in general. It’s a celebration of all the people who have helped to create America as we know it, those who continue to defend it, and everyone who calls it home today.
Be sure to stop by and take a look!

Pick one up when you visit the Library and get inspired!
National Library Week is an annual event sponsored by the American Library Association (ALA) and libraries of all kinds – school, public, academic, and specialty – all across the country. It is a time to celebrate the contributions of libraries and librarians to the communities they serve and to promote library use and support.
This year’s theme is “There’s More to the Story” – a reminder that the Library offers a lot more than just print books! We can provide resources like audiobooks, digital media, DVDs, puzzles, museum passes, meeting and study space, technology access and assistance, a variety of programs and activities, and more. But books are still a big part of what the Library is, and we’ve been bringing in all sorts of new material. Most of it can be found on our New Books display, to the right of the public computers upstairs. If there’s something you’d like to see in the Library’s collection but don’t right now, please fill out one of our book request forms (available at the Library) to let us know!
