Youth open house at library Dec. 5

This Friday, Dec. 5, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., the Cathlamet Library will be hosting a youth open house event. All-you-can-eat pizza will be available at our center table, so youth are invited to enjoy as much as they can. We’ll order more.

While visiting and enjoying your plate of pizza, go ahead and get your own free laminated library card. It only takes a few minutes. With your library card, you get additional benefits, such as the free Libby app. With this app, you can download ebooks and audio books any time. Your card also provides you with 15 percent off discounts at various local businesses. The library has four different cultural passes for you to check-out and use anytime.

You might also want to consider signing-up and becoming a library volunteer. If interested, our librarian, Vicki Franklin, can share with you all about becoming a volunteer. The Cathlamet Public Library is located at 115 Columbia St. and is open Wednesday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., Thursday from 2 to 5 p.m., Friday from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and Saturday from 2 to 5 p.m.
