This week we are celebrating the genre hoppers of @DarkSummerBookFest . Crime fiction’s awesome, but why not sci-fi as well? When you need a break from horror, how about some romantasy? What about some southern gothic and historical fiction back to back? We're excited to have @christophpaul_@robwhart@kcottcan@brandon_perras_sanchez@tvayyyy hanging out with us at Dark Summer Book Fest on Saturday, August 8th right here at the Framingham Public Library.

Our social worker Day has finished their time at the Framingham Public Library. We will miss them & the great support they provided for not only our patrons but also our staff.
Don't worry, we will still have social services at the Main Library. Elizabeth De Barros Dos Santos from MetroWest Care Connections (MWCC) will be taking over Day's social work office hours. You can book a free time to meet with Elizabeth on Wednesdays from 2-4pm.
You can learn more about our social work services here: framinghamlibrary.org/services/social-services/
