The Osceola Library System invites you to our 2024 Summer Learning Program, “Read, Renew, Repeat!” This theme encourages us to incorporate conservation into our daily lives. Conservation as a movement focuses on protecting species from extinction, maintaining and restoring habitats, enhancing ecosystem services, and protecting biological diversity. By incorporating this movement into our lives, the Library encourages reading as a restorative method of self-improvement and self-preservation!
We will have tons of free in-person programs for kids, teens, and adults including performers, book clubs, and more!
Summer Learning starts on Monday, June 4 and ends on Thursday, August 1.
