Not All Books are Irreplaceable

Not All Books are Irreplaceable

There’s a scene on the TV show, Gilmore Girls, when Jess borrows a book from Rory. When he returns it, she discovers that he’s scribbled on some of the pages. When confronted, he remarks “I just wanted to put some notes in the margins for you.” Now, even if you’ve never watched Gilmore Girls, we can probably all agree on one thing- it’s never OK to write in someone else’s book. That being said, it’s also frowned upon to dip your library books in sand at the beach or douse a paperback cover with coffee.Read More Read More

Museum Passes Are Back!

Our Museum Pass program, which is made possible by our Friends of the Larchmont Library, is one of the most popular programs we offer here in Larchmont.

Census 2020 Information

Census 2020 Information

We know that the past few months have been trying and it seems almost impossible to keep up with everything going on. If you have not had time to fill out the 2020 Census yet, don’t fret- the deadline for online, phone and mail-in responses has been extended until September 30th. Please remember that the census only comes around every 10 years and the data collected helps businesses, researchers and communities make crucial planning decisions. In other words, it’s kind of a ‘big deal’ and we want to make sure you’re counted!Read More Read More

May is Mental Health Awareness Month

May is Mental Health Awareness Month

It goes without saying that mental health is very important. Since 1949, the month of May has been deemed Mental Health Awareness Month. While 1 in 5 people will experience mental illness in their lifetime, now more than ever, everyone is facing challenges in their lives that can negatively impact mental health. We here at the library are fully aware of the effects which COVID-19 has had on daily mental health. Social distancing can be draining and not being able to see family or friends can be upsetting. We encourage you to stay strong, stay well and utilize some online resources we’ve compiled below to get you through these discouraging times.Read More Read More

What you will find below is a list of websites and links to some of these virtual activities and events. Take a look (and a click) to discover some of the best fun you can have right from your living room!Read More Read More
