Happy SPOOOOKYYYY Season! Take a look at our Witchy books at the reference desk to get your spooky on.

October 4-10 is Banned Books Week. We, as librarians, take your freedom to read very seriously. We have 2 displays, including a display with ECC Library Staff picks with our favorite banned and challenged books (read more). We continue (through 10/15) to celebrate Latinx Heritage Month with 3 displays so come check them out before then!

Two really fun displays are the Squirrel display on all things squirrel (perfect for fall!) and We built this display brick by brick, containing books that are 500+ pages long if you are up for the challenge!

Need to have a good cry? Try Tissue Worthy Reads.

We hope your Fall is going great so far!!!
