Some of these programs include Arapahoe Libraries English language learning services, Library for All serving adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities, library services at the Arapahoe County Detention Center and more.
Celebrate together
Join us for a party on Saturday, November 1, from 10 am-noon at Koelbel Library. Connect with other patrons to celebrate all the books read this month. There will be trivia, book swaps and literary-themed mocktails.
