A Mother’s Story: Finding Friendship and Community at Rosemount
"Rosemount branch has always been a place where I can find new "communities" when I needed them most.
Back in 2000, when I was a new mom and on maternity leave, I attended Jennifer's Babes in the Library on Wednesday mornings, where I met and connected with other moms -- many of whom have remained friends.
Now that I'm retired, I find myself once again at Rosemount, to knit on Wednesday afternoons and to write every second Friday afternoon. Today, my library is a place where I can make new friends and feel a deeper connection to my neighborhood.
I encourage everyone to explore the programs offered at their local branch -- and to speak to the staff if you have an idea for a new way to leverage your library as a community gathering space."
Happy Mother's Day
To every mom who has made the Library a part of her story — thank you.
