Two more free swim nights will be held Friday, July 30, and Friday, August 6, from 7-9 p.m. at the Austin Municipal Pool. Bring your family and friends! Sponsored by the Statewide Health Improvement Program (SHIP).

Generous donors helped the library sponsor three successful free nights of swimming at the city pool this summer.  Attendance was terrific! Thanks for making a splash with your library card!

Join Chief Scientist Jim Birkel at the library for some wild science fun this Friday, July 30. Kids can pre-register for the program that matches their grade level: the morning program (10:30-11:30 am), for kids in grades K-3, or the afternoon program (1-2 pm), for kids in grades 4-6. Even if you have come before, you can sign up again!

We've updated our website and given it a new look! It's build with Drupal Gardens, a web development application based on the open source software Drupal. The main advantages to the library of using this platform are its high quality, ease of use, low cost, and ability to give various library staff the ability to update content immediately. We' re excited and proud of our new website, and we hope you find it informative, up-to-date, and easy to use. We'd love to hear your comments! Click here to contact us.
