Here at Forsyth Public Library, we believe that libraries are for EVERYONE and we are actively working on making our building and our programs accessible to all. One big improvement that we are excited to announce is the addition of an ADA Door Opener system on our front doors. With the push of a button, our library is now more easily accessible to patrons with mobility challenges or in wheelchairs. This will also be a huge help to those pushing strollers, carrying children, or just loaded down with lots of good books!

Calling all birdwatchers! Thanks in part to a generous donation from Pat Warnick and family, we are excited to add new birdfeeders to our outdoor space. Come grab a cup of coffee, pull out one of our birding books and see if you can identify some of our new friends!
