Libraries

We want to thank everyone for attending our programs through our local libraries. We will be continuing to add more upcoming dates soon.

We are excited to announce our next set of Scheduled Program Dates with Mid-Continent Libraries and have added KCK Public Library dates also.

(adding more dates all the time, also check our Facebook Events)

These exotic animal interactive programs are approximately an hour long and at no cost to the public through Mid-Continent Libraries, KCK and Kansas City Public Libraries. Check out Mid-Continentes latest Beyond the Books catalog to see more about the programs offered and also the Local Branch Facebook's and websites.

​Please go to the branch site you are wanting to attend and register prior to the program. You may be able to come without registering but many of the sites fill up and end up holding a waiting list but still are forced to turn away guests not signed up because of their building occupancy codes.


Come see us at one of the following Free to the Public Events!
