Welcome to the Joeten-Kiyu Public Library this summertime as we work together to “Build a Better World” for the CNMI!  Readers of all ages are invited to join the Joeten-Kiyu Public Library and the Joeten-Kiyu Public Library Outreach Program in exploring the great things our library has to offer! Open registration begins Tuesday, May 9^th 2017 and ends Friday, May 26^th, 2017 from 10:30 a.m. – 5:30 p.m. at the Joeten-Kiyu Public Library Children’s Library (COHL). Registration is required. All participants must have a valid Joeten-Kiyu Public Library card with no pending fees/or fines.

We understand that transportation makes it difficult for families to have access to the Joeten-Kiyu Public Library. This summer, your friendly Book Mobile will be out in the community promoting our Joeten-Kiyu Public Library not only by visiting the Community Centers, but also by conducting home visits (July to August) upon request for families who would like to be a part of the Children, Teen, and Adult Summer Reading Program. Biba, Marianas!
