The Libby app is introducing more ways for users to opt out of AI-generated content.

In the next few weeks, you can expect to see:
- AI disclosures for all titles and narrators
- New AI filtering options
- A way to report undisclosed AI content

What do you think of these changes?

(P.S. If you're not already using your library card to borrow ebooks and audiobooks on the Libby app, it’s never too late to start!)

Each year on Peter Potamus' birthday, our young visitors drop off their stuffed animals for a sleepover at the library, and we document the night from start to finish.

Bubble and Squeak chaired the party planning committee this year. While we couldn't get the cotton candy machines and bouncy house they requested, we still think Peter's 58th birthday was one for the books!

Each family received a memory book to help them relive the night. Here are some of our favorite moments! (Can we bring back individually-captioned party pics on Facebook?)

Enjoy 🥳🎈🎉🪩🦛🐹🎂
