Good news for parents who work traditional schedules. We’ve increased weekend programming with something going on every Saturday!

Saturday Stories and Songs is back at 11 a.m. on October 19 at Norwood Library with the Hominy Mamas and 11 a.m. on October 26 at Halls with Miss Lynn. On October 5, plan for the perfect pairing of the Market Square Farmers Market and Saturdays with author/illustrator Daniel Wiseman at Lawson McGhee Library at 11 a.m. For families in the Karns area who can’t make it downtown, the KSO quartet is coming to the Karns Branch Library for a musical storytime. That happens at 11 a.m. as well. Check the Library’s online calendar for more KSO musical storytimes.
