This might help sometimes...

The prep for World Bear Weekend is in full swing! If you're going to be there, make sure you come check out the library exhibit!

The 🐱distribution system has finally found the CJLC. Meet Libris! She wandered up last week. No one is missing her, at least not that we've found. So, Mama Vi has decided that we need to feed her😀. Libris means "from the library of", which is super fitting!

Gaia came to see us!! As with all our guests, she is sitting as Mama tells her stories and just soaking it all in.

The newest acquisition for the Library. Would you believe ... Wait till yall *feel* the centerfold. (Yes, it is in Braille.)

Tonight is The Librarian Speaks! Join host Matthew Cary as he talks with Vi about where the Library will be and what's new!
