What's New

After a long, hot summer, the Lakewood Library will once again be open to patrons beginning at 10 a.m. Tuesday, Sept. 6. We have made improvements, most notably replacing our nearly 40-year-old HVAC system, improving energy efficiencies in the building and creating a new teen area.

An Open House for Teens will be taking place Sept. 6, which includes tours of the new area, crafts from 4-6 p.m. and a screening of Avatar immediately afterwards in the meeting room. Crafts for kids will also be available throughout the day.

We'll be celebrating the reopening Saturday, Sept. 10 with fun and refreshments.

Thanks for your patience as we made your library a more comfortable and inviting space!

Aug. 20 marks Standley Lake Library’s 20th anniversary. Join us beginning at 10 a.m. for a day of fun at the library.

Thanks for 20 years of wonderful patronage!
