TRAIL PASS!
Use the library pass to save $$$ on entry fees all season when you visit the Squam Lake Natural Science Center. All you need is a current library card to reserve the pass. Thank you Library Friends for providing this wonderful benefit to our community each year!
Starry, Starry Night
Our nights are especially clear and well suited to turning our eyes upward. Check out the library's telescope for a week of nighttime stargazing and exploring the moon. Look for the Space Station, the James Webb telescope or a meteor shower - the possibilities are as infinite as the heavens! Call or email to reserve it or drop by to check it out.
