Throughout the fall and winter of 2019-2020, WCKC will be highlighting Central MA public libraries to find out all the goods! For each new library we visit, we’ll report back on questions like: What makes this library extra special? What programs can you expect? What passes does this library offer?
This week we highlight Shrewsbury Public Library!
Shrewsbury Public Library is one of the busiest libraries in Central MA. You will find many events for families throughout the week. They are open 7 days a week! A great place to go on a cold, winter day.
