We've learned some great fun facts about our librarians in our Cardigan Convo series. This one is one of our favorites!

You might ask why we need librarians when Google exists?

Librarians can help you find things you might not even know you needed! Theres always something new to explore with the library.

Every librarian are passionate about helping you as they are about their favorite things! Just block out an hour or two if it comes up in conversation. 😅

Do you have a favorite thing to gush about? Let us know!

Homecoming Week is the perfect time to go on memory lane. But, what does that look like for the library?

The SWC/SC library strives to make this regions' memory lane preserved for generations. We take a look at one facet in this new episode of Cardigan Convo.
