Library offers educational kits for kids and adults
Public libraries were almost handed a death sentence when the internet came to be, but they adapted, expanded with innovative ideas, and remain a vital service in communities.
Creative ideas and resources now incorporate the place when you went and checked out boxes. Different classes are part of the library’s infrastructure these days plus art shows, lectures and demonstrations along with more hands-on activities for the young ones.
Of the estimated 122,566 U.S. libraries, more than 9,000 are public libraries and some 99,000 are school libraries. Most public libraries (85%) are connected to some form of government as is the Mineral County Public Library.
