The last stop of our #alaac25 road trip was at the Metuchen Borough Public Library. & it had a lot of heart! There were so many cool things to see. Especially Bruiser’s Books & Kavi the AG doll. Her storyline has her from Metuchen. This library is successful in serving this growing community!

Our #alaac25 road trip continued on to the White Plains Public Library. This austere building held a lot of whimsy! Such as imaginative play forts and unique furniture. Also, we flexed our librarian skills when a patron reached out for help during our visit! librarylandproject.org/stories-blog...

The Wethersfield Public Library was the 1st stop on our #alaac25 roadtrip! This modest library had an easy to follow layout. It was fun to people watch from the 2nd floor & the staff were helpful & very friendly! A fun conclusion to this visit was an ET themed sign posted in the parking lot.
