The Lincoln, Rhode Island Public Library is a little library that packs a big collection punch. The sprawling collection isn’t the only thing. Childrens is terrific and the librarian there is really friendly - as was Assistant Director Cassie. She had plenty of info of the library and the community. There was a nice flow of people during our visit, some of them using the really lovely outdoor seating area. A few of our favorite things include Shreddy the Shark, the forest view from an indoor work/seating area, the budding seed library, and the bowl of change available for printing and copying. Little things like that made this a really positive visit.

Briana from New York was such a vision of whimsy at the ALA Annual conference! 😍 She wore wore a fun black and yellow, Pikachu print dress with matching black converse. What made her outfit stunning was her accessories, especially the flower crown and glasses! We just know she was a delightful personality at her presentation.

Three Oaks Township Public Library is housed in a gorgeous 1905 former bank, of which this library still has its original vaults. One is now home to the DVD collection! There’s also a children’s treehouse, a plentiful Library of Things collection, cozy reading spaces, and the Biggest Little Baseball Museum upstairs. Three Oaks is a small town, with a BIG library personality!

Three Oaks Township Public Library in Three Oaks, Michigan, was the next stop on Rachael’s Midwestern library tour! This charming historic village is just two miles from the Indiana state line, and the library itself is housed in the beautiful 1905 E.K. Warren Building, a Renaissance Revival gem that once housed banks. Even better? The original bank vaults are still there, and one is now home to the library’s DVD collection! Inside, Rachael found a packed library with a Library of Things collection, cozy seating, historic displays, genealogy resources, and a delightful children’s treehouse. Upstairs, she discovered the Biggest Little Baseball Museum, packed with an impressive collection of baseball memorabilia. Three Oaks Township Public Library is definitely worth a visit if you find yourself in this charming corner of Michigan!

Elizabeth from Maine looked ready to tackle ALA Chicago! Dressed in a fabulous floral jumpsuit, they wore complimenting green sneakers & fun candy heart earrings. Their floral bag and green crayon themed water bottle paired well with the entire ensemble. The outfit was fun, and sensible for a conference!

Middleborough is 50 miles from Northborough & Southborough, but the library is worth the detour! Built in 1903, it’s packed with Beaux-Arts beauty, local history, taxidermy, 200+ circulating puppets, & even a Museum of abandoned bookmarks. A rainy day library adventure we won’t forget! ☔️📖

We visited the confusingly located Middleborough Public Library (confusing because it’s 50 miles from Southboro, Northboro, or Westboro . . .) and found a lovely Beaux-Arts library with a more prosaic 1992 expansion. The staff and patrons were generous with their time and tales of the town and the library. Hearing about Mr. and Mrs. Tom Thumb, and Commodore Nutt was interesting. The Sharbrary (their name for the Library of Things) was large and diverse. The taxidermy didn’t disappoint. Childrens’ was really something else - 200 circulating puppets!

A vacation isn’t complete without a library visit! Greg stopped at the beautiful Easthampton Public Library, an 1883 gem that’s still buzzing with community life. From its fascinating museum collection to a vibrant youth floor, seed library, food pantry, and friendly staff, there’s so much to love. A definite 👍 for this community-driven library!

We visited the Barton Public Library in the Green Mountain State of Vermont. Barton is a small town, but it’s BIG on community. We found cozy reading spaces, an incredible seed library, & community events that bring the people of Barton together. Truly what libraries are about!
