February 13th through 19th is Love Our Library week at the Klamath County Libraries!
Now as always in our history, reading is among our greatest freedoms. We believe that librarians have a profound responsibility to give validity to that freedom to read by making it possible for the readers to choose freely from a variety of offerings.
The foreign policy discussion group Great Decisions is back at the Klamath County Library! The group will meet for nine weeks on Thursdays at 1 pm, starting Thursday, January 27th.
The Library Advisory Board meets at noon on the third Wednesday of each month at the downtown Klamath County Library. The public is invited, but please call 541-882-8894 in advance if you plan to attend, as the downtown library is closed at that time. (Note: due to COVID-19, the Board is currently meeting via Zoom, but meetings are still open to the public. Please email Library Director Nathalie Johnston at njohnston@klamathlibrary.org to request an invitation.)
Recycling properly is worth the effort! Rhianne Janovich from Waste Management is visiting the downtown Klamath County Library on Wednesday, May 29th from 5:30 pm to 6:30 pm to talk about recycling in the Klamath Basin – how to do it right, and how it helps reduce waste.
