Are you planning to have your photo taken with Santa at the library either Tuesday or Wednesday, December 3 + 4?

Santa will be seated on the second floor and the elevator is currently out of order. Access to the second floor is via stairs only.

Library staff is working to create a safe storage area for strollers on the first floor, but let us know if you'll be unable to attend based on this access limitation and we can make other arrangements.

Sorry for any inconvenience.
