The 47th Annual Tomball Holiday Parade! Books carts, not just for shelving anymore!

Parade DeerIf you are planning on attending the Greater Tomball Area Chamber of Commerce's 47th Annual Holiday Parade on November 17th, we hope you'll cheer our marching group on! The dedicated and enthusiastic library staff will be pushing books carts along the parade route for your entertainment! Shhhh... we are currently putting together a top-secret book cart drill! If you have never heard of library cart drill teams, let me introduce you! Check it out! Librarians nationwide perform various themed-drills at many professional conferences. Yes, yes, we know it's out of the ordinary to hear this, but librarians and library staff need a little fun, too! See you at the Parade!

Library Parking Is Expanding!

ParkingThe library parking will be expanding! Additional spots marked as “Library Parking” in the lot adjacent to the current parking will now be available as overflow. However, citations will be issued to visitors outside of designated library parking starting in November. Please be sure to ask for staff assistance if needed.
