To welcome Enumclaw residents into the King County Library System, an open house will be held on Saturday, December 1, 2-4pm at the Enumclaw Library, located at 1700 1st Street.


Join us for music, refreshments and other festivities while touring the library.  


The open house will commence with a family program by children’s singer and songwriter Nancy Stewart. After a brief welcoming program with library staff and local dignitaries, the audience will enjoy a performance by the Gateway Concert Band. One of KCLS’ outreach vehicles, Library2Go!, will also be on-site for the event.    


Improvements to the library have been underway since June 2012, when the library annexed to the King County Library System. The library reopens on November 28 with interior enhancements including new furniture, carpet, paint, new computers, Self Check-out Stations and a cyber computer bar for laptop users. Access to KCLS’ catalog, which connects patrons to library materials throughout the System, offers a collection of more than 4.5 million items, including books, music, movies and more. Programs also have been expanded: a children’s Story Time series launched in September and Study Zones, a free tutoring service for students, started last month. Open hours have been expanded from 36 to 63 hours weekly.

Hi, Susan and Lou. We do know that our events calendar has issues at the moment with incorrect timesRead More displaying, and our engineering team is at work to correct this. My best suggestion at the moment is to post a comment on an event with the correct time, if you aren't able to go in and edit an event that you previously posted. Our ownership has not changed -- we have been and continue to be a part of the AOL family. Our intent with the new design is to highlight the great content that our users create and share with the community. We know there have been some bumps with our launch and are working diligently to fix them. We hope you'll be patient with us and continue to share on Patch.

Always looking for a local nature trail, I really enjoy reading Mary Janosik's well written blog. InRead More fact, almost all the dedicated bloggers posting on the Enumclaw PATCH have something worthwhile reading. But it is not an easy job for most of us, taking some time to research and write, without any compensation. Our only reward is knowing we are being read and appreciated and the only way we know that is when you comment. In my opinion, most of the PATCH blogs are a community service, informing residents about our community and issues concerning you, our readers. So please send your favorite bloggers a thank you or a comment once in awhile to keep us motivated and feel appreciated..
