Well, hellllloooo 2017! I’m feelin’ good vibes about this year! There are a lot of changes going on — and coming up — throughout North Lake Tahoe Libraryland.

The Truckee library will have a new branch manager soon. The Incline Village library has new open days, from being open Tuesday-Saturday to now being open Monday-Friday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Incline Village Library will also be going to a new system of checking out/returning items (more details forthcoming).
