There’s plenty to do at the library this month, so come join in on the fun with the following activities:
Library November Book Subscription Bag Sign-Up
Sign up from Oct. 23 through Nov. 6 to explore more young adult books with the library’s Book Subscription Bag. Each bag will include two to three books specially selected by library staff, along with snacks, goodies, and a craft. Please visit lynnfieldlibrary.org to fill out the form for the November bag, ensuring a bag is prepared for you. Participants must re-register for any future bags.
