If you haven’t filled out your 2020 census, please do! Being counted as part of the census helps the Library receive funding and other resources. Plus, having a good resident count means we’ll have more representation at the national level, which is vital. 

If you want to fill your census out online, we have computers and internet access (including wifi) that are free to use. It takes about 10 minutes to complete the survey. A little longer if you have a large family.
