The foreign policy discussion group Great Decisions is back at the Klamath County Library! The group will meet for nine weeks on Thursdays at 1 pm, starting Thursday, January 27^th.

The downtown Klamath County Library is holding a Minecraft build contest for kids and teens in November!

We want to see your coolest, most tricked-out secret forts. (Thoughtful décor? Awesome! Devious traps? Rad!) We’ll be judging entries in three age categories: Ages 5 to 8, Ages 9 to 12, and Ages 13-18. Winners in each category will win a $20 gift card to a local gaming shop.

April is Dinosaur Month at the Klamath County libraries! RAWR! Celebrate the mighty beasts of prehistory! 

Starting Monday, April 5th: Oregon’s Dino-Story! Through a pilot partnership with the University of Oregon’s Museum of Natural and Cultural History (MNCH), all Klamath County Libraries will get a hands-on science kit detailing Oregon’s prehistoric creatures, while supplies last. For ages 5-12. 

Join us Wednesday, Oct. 7th at 5:30 pm for the cuddliest disaster movie you've ever seen: Flow, an Oscar- and Golden-Globe-winning animated film from Latvia.

Flow follows a wide-eyed black cat who is caught up in a massive flood. The cat jumps aboard a drifting sailboat, populated by other animals seeking shelter. Can they work together to survive this devastated environment?

Flow is rated PG, has no spoken dialogue (aside from animal noises), and runs for 1 hour, 25 minutes.
