Welcome to almost-spring!

The major construction portions of our building remodel are just about wrapped up and you are all welcome to come back into the building. We’re still anticipating a few more changes before the project is complete, so you can expect to see some new furniture and updates to our shelving over the next six weeks or so. Thank you all for your patience during our construction and as we continue to bring all of our library services back online.

Spring Break is this month, and as usual we have activities for all the kids and teens who will be around Berthoud that week. Look forward to everything from planting fairy gardens to after-hours mini golf in the library. See below for more details.

Storytime has resumed and our adult events are also up and running. We have activities for all ages, so we hope to see you all soon.
