    On the Same Poem is a shared community focus on a single poem, reading it and discussing it. That’s just the beginning in the celebration of National Poetry Month in April. Poetry is also a proud part of our Community Read project.

    Summer Reading provides a special focus on reading for kids of all ages. Summer Reading Clubs are open to children, teens, and adults each year from the first Saturday in June through the end of July. Participants are encouraged to read and enjoy as many age appropriate books as possible!

  • Book Sales

    FCPL has plenty of great books to check out, but we also have books for sale.

Thanks to our patrons and their purchases and donations, our Libraries can expand collections for everyone.
