Patrick Lynch Public Library

Unearth a Story came to life Thursday at Craftenoon! Kids excavated fossils and then made their own fossil and dinosaur track impressions in air-dry clay.

There's always something fun happening at the library. Join us every Thursday at 4:00 p.m. for Craftenoon, a hands-on program for kids ages 6 and up.

Tuesday morning at Tiny Tot Storytime, we read Doris the Bookasaurus by Diana Murray and then created our own dinosaur scenes with stickers!

If your little one loves stories, crafts, and a little prehistoric fun, we'd love to have you join us. Tiny Tot Storytime meets every Tuesday at 10:00 a.m. for a story and a craft. Make plans to join us next time!

Wednesday's Teen Cooking Club was sweet success! Our teens made strawberry peach cobbler, and it was absolutely marvelous.

Looking for something fun to do this summer? We have a program for teens every Wednesday at 4:00 p.m. Join us again on June 17th when we'll be making beaded leaf planters. Bring a friend and come get creative with us!

Killers of the Flower Moon is now available to check out!

Based on the true story of the Osage murders in 1920s Oklahoma, this acclaimed film is a must-watch for history and true crime fans.

When Buckaroo Bart Taylor from the Will Rogers Memorial Museum visited the library earlier this week for a little readin' and ropin', he left our Library Manager, Mona Goodrich, a copy of his newest book!

The book is now ready to check out and can be found on our New Books shelf in the children's area. If you missed Bart's visit, this is a great way to learn more about Will Rogers and keep the fun going at home. Stop by and take a look!
