Plainview Public Library

The Plainview Public Library is raising funds to install an outdoor locker to allow local patrons to pick up materials when the library is closed. Patrons will use the PIN associated with their account to access a key that allows them to open their assigned compartment. Materials will already be checked out, ready to grab and go.

This project will extend library services to people who have difficulties getting to the library during open hours including students in sports, persons working out-of-town, and farming community members whose days are dependent upon weather.

The project cost is estimated at $5000.

If you would like to contribute, donations can be made at the library or online at GiveMN.org/Librarylocker.

Saturday, October 15 10:30am-12:30pm

Families with daycare age kiddos are invited to this celebration of reading and nursery rhymes. Visit the library for your map and activity card. Families will find nursery rhymes and activity suggestions in windows throughout downtown Plainview. Take a walk, read some rhymes, fill in the secret message, and return your card to the library for a gift from Mother Goose! Plan for 30 minutes of indoor and (possibly rainy) outdoor fun! Costumes are encouraged.
