Ready, set, library!

National Library Week is April 7-13 and First Regional Library encourages everyone in the community to visit the library to take part in the festivities and explore all the library has to offer.

Libraries give us a green light to experience something truly special: a place to connect with others, learn new skills and pursue our passions through book clubs, storytimes, crafting classes and lectures. The 14 branches of First Regional Library offer a wide array of programs, classes and resources for all ages.

And libraries play a pivotal role in economic development by providing resources and support for job seekers, entrepreneurs and small businesses. First Regional Library supports DeSoto, Lafayette, Panola, Tate and Tunica Counties with services such as online resume help, test prep and continuing education classes.

No matter where you find yourself on the roadmap through life’s journey—preparing for a new career, launching a business, raising a family, or settling into retirement—First Regional Library offers the resources and support you need and an inclusive and supportive community.

So, get ready to explore, become inspired, and connect with others this National Library Week. First Regional Library is there for you all the way to the finish line.

First sponsored in 1958, National Library Week is a national observance sponsored by the American Library Association and libraries of all types across the country each April.
