Yavapai Diaper Drive
Join us as we collect diapers and wipes to help low-income families. The Coalition for Compassion and Justice, with the support of First Things First, invites the community to donate diapers and wipes (including new cloth diapers) at the library from May 12 (Mother's Day) through June 16 (Father's Day). Diapers will be distributed to local babies and toddlers.

The Teen Zone Has Been Renamed!
All throughout the month of April, the Youth Services Department conducted a survey to rename the Teen Zone in the mezzanine. There were three choices to choose from: The Hideaway, The Attic, or The Haven. After tallying up the counts, the winner, by a vast majority, was "The Hideaway!"
