The Del City Library supported the Del City community by preparing a Veteran’s Day display, which coincided with the female veteran memorial dedication. Items from the display were from staff members whose families served and community partners honoring their family members. We wanted to share this amazing dedication to our veterans and customers.
Thanks to all who participated in the Holiday Open House Festival of Trees. Even with all the snow on Sunday, we hosted over 200 guests for the festivities. Our customers had the opportunity to enjoy the theme trees and voted on their favorites. They were all wonderful and they all got many votes.

Recently, Metro was contacted by Tinker Air Force base because they were curious as to what we could offer those serving at the base. Metro staff met with Tinker's Commanding Officer and the Director of the Tinker Library and from this meeting, we determined that it would be helpful to visit the base to sign up service members for library cards so on October 30th, staff from Midwest City and Planning did just that. In attendance from Midwest City was Chris Kennedy, Tracey Thompson, Crystal Suppes and Shirley Henderson while Kellie Delaney and Tim Spindle from Planning were there, too.
Ralph Ellison's annual Fall Festival is a large family event. Participants visited a petting zoo, got their face painted, played spooky games, created one-of-a-kind crafts, and walked the runway during the costume contest. Kids also received a book, MLS backpack, candy, and snacks.
