More Adult Fiction & Nonfiction

Stop by the library to pick up a craft to do at home with the whole family! This event will be every 3rd Saturday of the month while supplies last.

This occurs during the summer months when our reading slows down quite a bit. Dates, events, and prizes will be announced here on Facebook. Register online at https://robinsafblibrary.beanstack.org/reader365. Log your reading and participate in virtual activities. Earn rewards.

The 100 Pages Book Club gets our readers into the first 100 pages of a book. This club is a great way to begin or restart your passions for reading. The readers will be introduced to diverse authors and genres. They will hold conversations about the created text.
