National Library Week 2018 at Century Library

This week, Century College Library joins libraries nationwide in celebrating the many ways libraries lead their communities through the transformative services, programs and expertise they offer.

April 8-14 is National Library Week, an annual celebration of the life-changing work of libraries, librarians and library workers. Libraries aren’t just places to borrow books or study—they’re also creative and engaging community centers where people can collaborate using new technologies and develop their skills and passions.

Century College Library is celebrating National Library Week with a few little things.

Do you like free books? Century Library has a few tables for you to choose from this week.
