Presentations
Staff joined in on the fun at the Grand Generation Center's Sock Hop event where they also gave a presentation on what the library has to offer such as book clubs, programs, and delivery services for patrons who can't make it in to the library to borrow items.
Staff at the 2023 Grand Comic Fest made their own cosplay costumes using the Library's Makerspace. Staff promoted the Makerspace as well as programs the library offers for teens, kids, and adults.
