Investing In Community – Building A Future Together
Community Library Sedona stands as a vibrant reflection of the people it serves. It is not just a space filled with books or a quiet corner for study; it is a hub of connection, discovery, and shared experiences. The rebranding from Sedona Public Library to Community Library Sedona was not just a change in name […]
GET LOUD THIS SUNDAY!
This week, you stepped up, and were patient and kind with us as we worked on making Sedona Public Library the best community library it can be. Thank you for your understanding and for being flexible as we worked on much needed updates. After all, the building is turning 30 building needed some tender-loving care. […]
Let’s Get Loud!
The turkey has been gobbled, the leftovers evenly distributed to friends and loved ones, and we hope that you and yours had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Naturally, the end of Thanksgiving marks the unofficial start of the holiday season. Actually, TODAY, kind of kicks things off doesn’t it? No doubt many are already in-line at the […]
Giving Thanks at the Library
Thanksgiving will be here before we know it. Actually, it’s next Thursday. That seems fast doesn’t it? But looking forward to that holiday is always a blessing. Thanksgiving has always been a time for families to get together and appreciate what they are thankful for – time spent with each other. What do you […]

What Do We All Have in “COMMONS”
It seems like it was only yesterday – November 13, 2022 to be exact – when I made enough of my award-winning chili to feed more than 400 people at the grand opening of the Library’s new outdoor space: the Commons. Still reeling from my People’s Choice win at the Rotary Club of Sedona’s Chili […]
Happy Haunting at the Library
It’s getting festive at Sedona Public Library with programs and crafts for everyone. Next Thursday, October 31, is Halloween. A time to dress up, gorge on candy – I’m a big fan of all things Reese’s Pieces (hint hint) – and celebrate all things spooky. ‘Tis the season after all. A ton of fun is […]
Get outta here, no, really…get out!
August marked ten years of my living in the Grand Canyon State. Aside from the usual “Where does the time go?” musings that I make over dinner, I’ve come to realize that I’ve barely scratched the surface of all the places to visit and things to do in Arizona. But I have done the obligatory […]
Third Anniversary Celebrated with New Hours at Village Library
According to Sheri C., a regular patron at Sedona Public Library in the Village, “The Village Library means EVERYTHING to those of us who have been patrons for years!” She is not alone in this sentiment. What started as a book box in a grocery store in a non-descript strip mall in the Village of […]
