Magnifiers
The library has two magnifiers with built-in LED lights! One is available for checkout, the other for library use only. Magnifiers are great for reading fine print, low-vision users, and even crafting!
Quiet Zone
Need a quiet, low-distraction place to study? The Library's Quiet Zone is located behind the bookshelves and features a white noise machine to dim noise and distraction. The Quiet Zone is for individual, silent study only.
See you at the Library!
