It's February, and you know what that means: it's Library Lover's Month, of course! But it's also a season for romance. But what if you could combine the two? What if you could... date the library?
Hello fellow readers and book lovers! I can’t believe we are nearing the end of 2024 already! My favorite time of year, Halloween, has come and gone.

November is National Family Literacy Month and there's no better way to celebrate than by stopping by your local public library! There are plenty of ways you can begin to develop literacy skills with your baby, and it's a great way for families to bond, too.
I originally started writing this post because I thought November 6th was National Nonfiction Day. Upon trying to find more information, not only did I not find an actual date for it, but it's also something mostly acknowledged in the UK.
As October draws to a close, we near what most call the spookiest, scariest, most spine-chilling day of the year...Halloween! While many embrace the ghoulish festivities, here at CGPL, we recognize that not everyone loves the creepy crawlies.
It’s that time of year again (my favorite time of the year), spooky scary skeleton season! We are about a week away from Halloween, and you know what that means?
This week we want to celebrate our teen patrons! From programs, to reading recommendations, to after school Wii sessions, we enjoying seeing our teen patrons every week.
