Bubble Man Program Today

We are keeping a close eye on the weather, and so far, it looks like we will need to move the program to the Victory Christian Academy gymnasium. We are supposed to have rain this evening and wind. The Victory Christian Academy is located at 115 S. Star in El Dorado, across the street from the courthouse and south of the old Carnegie Library. There is an entrance off the parking lot.


There is NO air conditioning in the gym.

We will post the final location later today. You can also call the library, 316-321-3363, this afternoon after 4 to find out. We are really hoping to have the program at the library, but the chances seem slim. The weather is just not cooperating.

Directions from Google Maps here.

The Official Word is- WAIT

Got the word this afternoon on the Library Kids website. I am to wait until next week to try and fix things. So, for now things will stay as they are. Thanks for you patience.

No Images For Now

Still having problems with the Library Kids website. It may be quite awhile before it is back to its former glory.
Weather and websites, both beyond our control.

Movie today @ 2:00. G-Force. Come one, come all.

Still not back to normal

The Library Kids website is trying to come back, but there are still problems. All of the images are gone, for one. They are working on fixing things, but it will take some time. In the meantime, don't forget, we are showing the movie "G-Force" in the Clymer room on our BIG screen. The show starts at 2:00 pm and is open to all ages. As usual, children under seven years of age, must be accompanied by an adult while in the library.
