It's going to be a fall to remember!

🌟 SAVE THE DATES! 🌟

We have lots of opportunities coming up to get outside, look up, learn about astronomy, and enjoy the night sky! 🌌🔭

Go ahead and save these dates to your calendar, and watch for additional details as each event gets closer.

The Dark Sky Festival is not an SAS-hosted event, but shared as a community recommendation. 🙂

Please note that our October monthly meeting will be held at the Brentwood library 👀 instead of the usual Library Center.

Only 10 seats left! Register now!

🚨 NEW ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED: FREE AUDIOBOOKS! 🚨

Attention Crawlers! Have you been dying to listen to the massively popular Dungeon Crawler Carl series but didn’t want to shell out the subscription credits? We have huge news.

For a long time, these legendary audiobooks were locked strictly behind an Audible-exclusive wall. That exclusivity has officially ended, and we are thrilled to announce that the series is now available to check out and listen to completely FREE through the library!

If you haven't experienced Jeff Hays' incredible narration of a man and his award-winning, talking cat surviving an intergalactic game show apocalypse, there has never been a better time to start.

Grab your library card, and start your descent into the dungeon today. 🎧🐈💣

Grab your lawn chairs and get ready for another amazing weekend of fun! 🎶 The Shandies are bringing their incredible sound to Sparta, and it’s going to be a night to remember. We can’t wait to see you there! ✨

Everything stopped on September 11, 2001. Whatever we were doing became trivial as we witnessed terror and devastation. Collectively we watched, we hurt, we feared, and swore we would never forget.

Libraries preserve these memories and build bridges across generations.

Whether you are looking to help a young reader make sense of what that day means to Americans or to honor those we lost, our library offers resources on 9/11 and its aftermath.

History can feel distant at times, but stories of first responders, survivors, and eyewitness accounts keep these memories alive. Our collection connects you with the stories of the people that we will not forget.
