“Our family loves Shelby County Public Library. We have been involved in their programs since we moved to Shelbyville in 2003. My son has participated in the preschool, school age, and now teen programs. My husband and I enjoy participating in the “Painting with Amanda” [Uniquely U] classes. And I love that I can borrow and download ebooks for my Kindle.” – Melody
“We LOVE the Library, the amazing staff, and Bookmobile! What a valuable resource!” – Alan
