Temple Public Library

A very tall visitor stopped by Temple Public Library this week 🦒📚

Gracie said she was just visiting from San Antonio, so we gave her the full tour. She explored the shelves, helped us re-shelve a few books, and had a natural advantage when it came to anything on the top shelf.

She’s headed back home now, but not before giving Temple Public Library a 10/10 recommendation for books, programs, and friendly staff.

We can’t promise giraffe sightings on your next visit, but we can promise there’s always something new to discover.

It’s been officially one week since the Temple Public Library’s Summer Reading Kickoff Party, and we’re still thinking about how much fun we had!

We kicked off summer with a full day of reading, activities, and community connection, and the turnout was incredible.

In just one day, we saw:
🦖 1,221 attendees join us at the library event
📚 28 new library cards issued
🦕 1,800 materials checked out

Got photos from the event? Send them our way—we’d love to see them!
