Miss Netta, the Children’s Department Supervisor at the LAKE HIAWATHA BRANCH LIBRARY, is retiring.
We would like to invite you and your children to come to the Lake Hiawatha Children's Department and make Miss Netta a special card. We have all the supplies set up here at the library.
Thank you in advance for making Miss Netta a card and for letting her know what a special librarian she has been for you and your family!
