Hi [First Name], here's what's happening at Henderson Libraries!

80 Years of Henderson Libraries!

Did you know we turned 80 this year? In 1944, Henderson District Public Libraries was officially founded to help support the newly forming Henderson School District. We opened our first library on August 1, 1946 off Atlantic Avenue in (now) Downtown Henderson. Our first Summer Reading Program took place in 1950, and by 1958, our book circulation reached over 33,000 books as Henderson's population hit 17,000 residents!

All-Ages Summer Reading Challenge

Adventure begins at your library with our Summer Reading Challenge! This annual reading progam runs through July 31st and is open to kids, teens, and adults. The more you read, the more chances you'll have to win great prizes!

After the packed house at last year's One Book event, we want to thank the City of Henderson for partnering with us to provide a larger venue to accommodate even more attendees.

Copies of The Henna Artist are available at any Henderson Libraries location and can be downloaded as eBooks and audiobooks from Hoopla and Libby. We are also offering fun programs for adults inspired by the novel, including crafts, henna tattoos, and Indian classical music.
