The library's Mobile Technology Lab is on the move! The library is partnering with Cedar Rapids Parks and Recreation’s Rollin' Recmobile to bring activities for all ages to the community this summer.
Find us at parks around the city from Monday, June 5 to Friday, Aug. 4 for books, games, fun, and a few surprises, too. For this stop we will be rotating between two different parks each week.
Each stop will feature story time 30 minutes after the visit begins (9:30 am at Redmond Park, noon at Jacolyn Park, etc).
June Tech to Go programs are generously sponsored by CRBT, and July programs are sponsored by ITC Midwest.
