Valentine’s Day Tree at the Lyons Public Library


The librarians at the Lyons Public Library took some extra time and effort decorating a tree for Valentine’s Day at the Lyons Public Library. “It took quite a bit of time, but we enjoyed doing it,” stated Geraldine Peterson, one of the assistant librarians.

The tree has been on display for quite sometime now, right inside the front door of the library, for all to see upon entering.
