This service is something patrons have been requesting for a few years and we are thrilled to have a product that is easy to use on any text-capable phone.

"Children's non-fiction by Eggers! Beautiful art. Beautiful message. And you just might learn a couple new things about the Statue of Liberty."
--Leanne, Nobo Corner Library
Overheard at the Library
A mom shared this with a librarian at NoBo:

"Whenever I drive by the [NoBo Corner] Library, I wave hello.  My daughter asked, 'Why are you waving at a library?' I answered, 'I love that library!'”
