Switch 2 Play is a weekly Thursday event at 4:00 PM in the library, where people of all ages can relax and connect through popular games like Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Mario Kart World, Just Dance, Street Fighter VI, and more! All necessary equipment—including the console, controllers, and seating—is provided for a fun and easygoing gaming experience, though feel free to bring your own controllers if you prefer!

Calling all homeschooled kids! Through hands-on activities, experiments, and interactive lessons, children will discover, learn, and explore.
If you’re already enrolled in the free, self-paced online GED course, the GED Study Circle is your space to get extra support. Drop in with questions, receive help with lessons you’re working through, and get clarification on any material that feels challenging.
Ready to power up your afternoon? Come to the library and play interactive games on the Nex Playground system! Move, jump, and laugh with friends in an active gaming session.

Join us for our 3D Printer Orientation!
This orientation session will introduce participants to 3D printing services in the library. Those who complete the class will then be able to request time to use a 3D printer at HCPL branches, at which time they will complete a short machine-specific orientation at the location of their choice. Attending this orientation is mandatory before patrons can request time to use a 3D printer.
Join us for an interactive early literacy experience for preschoolers and their caregivers. This program is geared toward children ages 3-6 years old and features songs, books, and crafts each week!
