Elementary-aged kids are invited to a friendly competition!  See how much you remember from some of our staff's favorite children's books.  

While walk-in participants are welcome, we ask that you please register (online or by phone) for this program.  If you wish to be on the same team as someone else, please register together using the blue "add more people" button at the top right of the registration page.  All registrants should be children (ages 5-12).

Questions will be read aloud.  Points will be awarded on the basis of both correctness and speed.

About the branch

The Central City Library is our branch library that allows us to serve a larger portion of our community. The building includes a circulating collection of books, movies and more; public computer access and Wi-Fi; a large meeting room; and hosts multiple public events and activities throughout the year. A book drop is located at both front and back of the building, allowing 24/7 access to return borrowed materials.
As part of a single library system, materials can also be transferred freely between the main and branch libraries for patrons’ convenience.
