National Library Week Activities

Stop by the library Monday, April 4th - Friday, April 8 to celebrate National Library Week!

April 3-9, 2022 is National Library Week, a time to highlight the essential role libraries, librarians and library workers play in transforming lives and strengthening communities. The theme for this year’s National Library Week is “Connect with Your Library,” which promotes the idea that libraries are places to get connected to technology by using broadband, computers and other resources. Libraries also offer opportunities to connect with media, programs, ideas and classes, in addition to books. Most importantly, libraries also connect communities to each other.

To show appreciation to the community, the Hillsboro City Library will be providing refreshments and activities all week long. So stop by to grab a cookie while you participate in a scavenger hunt or make crafts in the children's department. Can you guess how many jelly beans are in the jar? Guess correctly, or as close to correctly as you can, for a chance to win the jar of jelly beans and a book. Don't forget to bring the kids and grandkids to the library at 10AM on Tuesday, April 5 for storytime and again on Friday, April 8th for a Bubble Bonanza in the library's garden from 10AM - 2PM.
