Thank you to everyone who came out to this year’s Halloween Spooktacular & Trick-or-Treat Bash at Library Park! 🎃 We loved seeing so many friends, families, and neighbors all dressed up together.

Congratulations to all of our costume contest winners, and thank you to every participant who made the judges’ job so hard!

We’re grateful to our premier sponsor - Athens Services, Old Town merchants, volunteers, and City staff for helping make it such a great event. We can’t wait to celebrate with you all again next year! 👻

The Monrovia Public Library’s Story Room is about to get a lot bigger!

Construction begins this week, and when it’s done, the Story Room will be nearly three times its current size, with more space for storytime and library programming!

A few things to know while the work is underway: the library will remain open with regular hours, but the children’s area will be closed off and some programs will temporarily move to the Community Room or Community Center. Check the library calendar or call us at 626-256-8264 to confirm a program’s location.

You may also hear some construction noise, and at least 10 parking spaces along West Lime Ave. will be temporarily closed (swipe to see the affected spots). We’re doing our best to minimize disruptions throughout construction!

Thanks for your patience, and we can’t wait to welcome you into the new Story Room!
