LIBRARY PROGRAMS & EVENTS

Join us for engaging programs for all ages and visit the remodeled and unique children’s area featuring a galis dungal - a traditional Washoe winter shelter. Or, discover your next great read through the Biggest Little Book Box, one of the library’s many free services.

The library’s event calendar is teeming with fun and free educational programs. Children can learn a new skill through handson programs like Summer Sewing Camp, LEGO Robotics, or Weird Science Wednesday. The whole crew is welcome at our Summer Reading Program events like Dive Deep with the U.S. Coast Guard and Freshwater Fun with the Nevada Department of Wildlife.

Sail into the Norman Rosenberg Young People’s Library to explore the galis dungal and newly installed mural with scenes of Cave Rock and the Carson Range. Can you spy images from Washoe stories as well as local plants and animals? The library’s welcoming space has room to read, study, or work, whether you’re solo or with your mates. a short form with your interests and a librarian will select two fresh reads delivered in a personalized box.
