Do you listen to music?  Did you happen to know that the HCPL audio catalog is quite expansive?  We have everything from classical composers including Beethoven, Handel, and Mozart to much more contemporary artists.  Not sure where to start looking?  Through our new titles page, you can find out what are the most recent, most requested, or most circulated music titles we have to offer.

Well it's a new year and although the holiday decorations and artworks are about to come down, new posters and displays will be replacing them throughout the next couple of months.  All of the submissions for the public bulletin board were awesome!  Be on the lookout for upcoming holiday coloring pages.  If you have any recommendations or creative ideas you would like to share, please let us know.  We are looking forward to putting up more patron-created art in the near future.

Have you seen the recent additions to our public bulletin board?  Next time you stroll through the lobby, take a moment and appreciate the colorfully decorated reindeer, snowman, and gingerbread houses of our artistic young patrons.  We will continue to put up any holiday or winter themed works brought to us throughout the remainder of the year.  Coloring pages are still available and although space is limited, we will display all submissions.  Happy Holidays!

Want to help us decorate for the holidays?  Bring in your holiday or winter themed artwork and we will put it on display for all to see and admire.  Create an intricate paper snowflake or a construction paper snowman like the one behind our front desk.  You can also find many holiday themed craft ideas near 745.594 in the non-fiction area.  Worried about your creative skills?  Fret not!  Throughout December, we will have various coloring pages for our patrons to scribble on.
