Your guide to Lawrence Public Library's summer parties, events, and great reads.
The World Wide Web became commercially available in 1991. Ever since, human beings have been hooked on the internet.
Do you remember the slow pace of life before email, texts, and status updates? Or were you born with a smart phone in your hand? Either way, you know how soothing it can be to go off the grid once in a while.
It's ok to slow down. This summer, LPL invites you to forget your cares and take some time to get unplugged.
You can read a book and get swept away by the story. You can take a spin on your bike or come up with a cool, new invention. You can take a bubble bath watch the clouds float by, or take a boombox downtown and start a spontaneous break dance party.
Here at LPL, you can find relaxation and fun all summer long, starting with a timeless activity: reading. That's one pre-internet pastime we can all get behind.
