Sierra Vista Public Library — Attraction in Sierra Vista

It is so refreshing to see the library truly trying to engage children as 21st century learners. I love that they have more of a social media presence and are doing so many STEM (Science Technology Engineering and Math) based events. While I understand that many are used to just showing up to events at the library, I understand the importance of registering for these events as supplies must be requisitioned and I can appreciate that the library is fiscally responsible enough to only buy what is needed.

How about doing more activities outdoors for us all to enjoy when you have a 5-year-old with cabin fever and nothing to do? Or better yet, hold events throughout the week since its summer vacation and the kids are out. Story time is nowhere near being fun anymore either. We used to go weekly when Miss Megan was there. She made it so much fun for the kids. After the new chick showed up, we went once and never again. Since the new children's librarian came on board things have changed dramatically and not...
