In partnership with Barbara Bush Library’s First Responder and Trunk or Treat event, join the Early Learning Quality Network on October 30th at 10am for a community exchange for families with young children. Children may choose one book from our ELQN book fair. Families will have the opportunity to donate gently used children’s books, canned goods, and baby supplies in exchange for up to an additional 5 new books per family from our book fair. Items donated will benefit Barbara Bush Library’s food pantry, the Library Frien
