WHAT DOES MARMORA & LAKE PUBLIC LIBRARY OFFER?
We offer so much more than just books and free Wi-Fi. We have all sorts of fun programs and resources for adults, kids, and
families!
Adults:
·12 Month Reading Challenge: Read widely. Read something you wouldn’t normally read with our 12 month reading challenge.
Finish each genre/theme and submit your form to get a prize!
·Seed Library: Have a look at the seeds we have to offer through our website. Then plant your seeds and enjoy the fruits,
vegetables, or flowers that you have grown! When it’s time to harvest, save the seeds to donate back to library for Seed Library
2022.
