Tompkins County Public Library

It's Summer Reading Eve! On Thursday, Summer Reading kicks off at your Library with a celebration!
And when the party gets started, Sasha wants everyone to meet the newest member of the Youth Department: Magnolia! This friendly dinosaur will oversee all the youth raffle entries for the Summer Reading Challenge.
Remember: the big kick-off begins at 4 p.m. on Thursday with games, a fossil dig, crafts, free books for all ages, cookies, lemonade, and more!
Kids can bring stuffies for a special mission (and gift!) and adults can bring in a clothing item to transform into TCPL swag.
