I believe that your local library is most likely your most underutilized tool. Here’s why. Libraries are not just books! Sure, it is books, but it’s also; audio and video materials, digital magazines, online resources, research databases, go-pros, board games, and more.

The Carnegie Stout Public Library also provides you a chance to grow culturally, artistically, and musically. Every other weekend the after-hours First Friday’s events feature the work of local artists at Art at your library and original music by local and regional musicians in Music at your library. In addition to First Fridays the library hosts a number of great community events; meet authors, join a book club, attend a workshop, and a whole lot more.
