Hi everyone,

I want to personally thank everyone who has participated in our first two Community Engagement Workshops. We had strong attendance, thoughtful questions, and meaningful dialogue about what the future of our library could look like. These sessions are focused on understanding our space needs, listening to community feedback, and sharing information about how we can continue serving O’Fallon well into the future.

Our next workshop will be held on Thursday, March 19 at the KC Hall, and I invite you to join us. Attending does not obligate you to support anything. It’s simply an opportunity to learn, ask questions, and share your perspective. You can register at ofpl.info/togetherofallon.

On that page you’ll find reports from previous workshops, a searchable FAQ section, and a place to submit your own questions or comments. We want this to be an open, ongoing conversation. Your voice matters.

Maggie's Pick

Bleak House
by Charles Dickens
The complex story of a notorious lawsuit in which love and inheritance are set against the classic urban background of 19th-century London, where fog on the river, seeping into the very bones of the characters, symbolizes the corruption of the legal system and the society which supports it.
