Building for the Future

In April, we’ll be holding the second round of community engagement meetings for building projects at Park Grove, Wildwood, and Valley libraries. At these meetings, the architects will be sharing the feedback they’ve gathered so far and images to help attendees start envisioning what a library of the future will look like in their communities. Find out more about each event, or learn more about the projects on our building page, WashCoLib.org/Future.

STEM Saturdays

This month, young minds can learn about the engineering design process and build a personal-sized catapult at Lake Elmo Library. Or, if the mysterious is more your style, visit Oakdale Library to learn about the psychology, chemistry, and physics behind some great magic tricks.
