At the Library
By Mike Selby
Cranbrook Public Library
The Cranbrook Public Library opened its door on July 4, 1925, meaning we are turning 100! It is not so much a celebration of us, but a celebration of you—and everyone who has used the library during the past century. Congratulations to all of us!
Have you joined our 2025 Reading Challenge? We’re challenging all Cranbrook Citizens to read 10 books this year!
Grab a 2025 Reading Challenge Bookmark from the Welcome Desk and read 10 items of any genre, format (yes, audiobooks count) and fill in the title on the back of the bookmark. Once your bookmark is complete drop it off at the Welcome Desk to be entered for a Cranbrook Public Library Swag Bag and other surprises during our CPL 100 Years of Stories Anniversary celebration. If you like, grab another bookmark and start again!
Donations for the Friends of the Cranbrook Public Library will be accepted on Friday, May 2 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the Manual Training School.
The Garage Sale will be held the next day, Saturday May 3 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.
