Max invites everyone to stop by the library tent at Pells Park on the 4th of July. (He will not be there. He will be enjoying the relative peace and tranquility of the air-conditioned library; but still, do stop by our tent in the park and say "hello.")

The Paxton Carnegie Library will be closed July 4th and 5th.
