Continuing the Crook County News Since 1884

This Week at Your Library

Did you know we have a Library of Things collection? You can check out lots of fun kits for a variety of activities. Check out our “Memory Care Kits”. These kits are geared towards older adults with the goal of helping with memory and cognitive function. Each kit has some kind of game, a fidget or puzzle, plus more items that will engage the mind.
