New Year, New Attitude!

We are kicking off a new decade and our goal in the next ten years is to build a brand new library for the citizens of Mulberry, Florida to enjoy! We are always taking donations to submit toward our goal. We work hard to keep our patrons happy and truly believe that a new library is in the library's future. We have a lot of great ideas for the upcoming year, so stay tuned to hear about our different programs and events. We will be starting to promote our summer program later in the spring and we are very excited about the theme this year!

Now that the holidays are over, you've eaten too much, and you have a billion or so new year's resolutions to uphold, we hope to see you soon! We, of course, have the latest bestsellers and anything that we do not have, we are most likely able to get it for you (as long as your request is available in our county wide system, we can order it for you, to be sent here for pick up!).

Just a reminder that every Tuesday at 10:30am, we host a Preschool Storytime. If your child can sit still through a short story and then a small craft, bring him or her down for some fun! Each week is a different theme!

We know it is a bit belated, but all of us here at Mulberry Library wish you the best of everything in the upcoming year (and a belated Merry Christmas!). We hope to see you and can't wait to set up any new patrons with a library card so they can see what amazing services we have to offer!
