Olivia's favorite part of making a Library card is the reaction when she says they can check out up to 150 items at a time, including 2 video games and 30 feature films DVDs!

How many library resources have you checked out at one one? Don't worry, we don't judge! 🎮💿

POV: When you and Gramma are playing at Strang Park and you see your Dad's truck parked at Central Resource Library there's no public entrance in the back but there's a big window to look for him. 💖
