What’s Happening at CCPL???

Adult Winter Reading – Winter Reading started on December 15th and goes till February 28th. Come to any branch to pick up your Winter Reading log, then fill in the circle for each challenge you complete to earn a free raffle ticket with a chance to win a Book Lovers Basket! We do ask that everyone registers for Winter Reading so you can do that on our webpage or in person at any branch location.
