August 8th, 2016 is the day we introduced Owlfred! You have probably seen him sitting around the library, running around on TikTok, and all across library materials in person!

Here are some fun facts about Owlfred:

Just can’t get enough of this guy? Stop by the Children’s Department anytime during the month of August to complete a scavenger hunt for his birthday candles, share your ideas on what Owlfred wants for his birthday, check out some new materials to enjoy, and more! See you soon!
