The Children’s Room is getting new carpet and a fresh coat of paint!

This means:

• We’ll be temporarily “camping out” in the Assembly Room, but don’t worry! We’re still having storytime and other programs and we’ll be here for you to request and check out books.
• We will have limited access to our collections starting in early November, but we can help you plan ahead if you have projects.
• You can help us by checking out a whole lot of books at once! We’ll extend the due date and have fine flexibility for Belmont Children’s items, so you’ll have plenty of time to enjoy your check outs.

–Operating hours may change. Check our web page (https://belmontpubliclibrary.net/) or call 617-489-2000 for more information.
