Oh no, the lot is closed!

Some days both parking lots at the library are full and cars circle around to find a spot. It is usually because of a combination of an active library and an active Southminster church.
But this Wednesday and Thursday, May 12 & 13, the cars won't even be able to circle both lots!

The big lot that Southminster & the library share will be CLOSED on Wednesday & Thursday. The small lot in front of the library will be open with only access from Castle Shannon Blvd.
Parking is going to be tight so please make arrangements to walk, bike or carpool.
The library will be open as usual so please stop by to see us!
If you have any questions, call us at 412.531.1913.

Bookmarks, anyone?

Our Curious George bookmark bin in the children's department has always been popular with our patrons. Kids feel very special when they can choose a bookmark to take home. Lately, we have been filling the bin with bookmarks that were made by the local schools and they are a huge hit!

We're opening the invitation to all of our patrons - fill our bookmark bin with your creative bookmarks! Make a bookmark, or two, or seven and bring them in to the children's department. We'll put them in our bin for a lucky patron to take home.

Show your creativity, love of the library and love of reading with a bookmark.

Ready, set, go!
