Ranging from suspense, to noir and cozies, these suggested new mystery novels offer a wide appeal.

On April 22, 2019, the team at the Robinson-Spangler Carolina Room conducted an inventory of the historic Dowd house on behalf of Mecklenburg County Parks and Recreation and received many WWI artifacts and photos in return.

Help your young child prepare for kindergarten with the Library's FREE month-by-month guide to kindergarten readiness. Tips and ideas include skills development, getting ready to read, health and wellness and lots of book recommendations!

To improve your child's vocabulary, add more detail to what she says when she talks with you. Research shows that children who have larger vocabularies are better readers. Knowing many words helps children recognize written words and understand what they read.

Charlotte Mecklenburg Library offers a range of programs and services for older adults. From financial literacy programs to technology classes to book clubs, we have something for everyone. 

Learning circles are study groups for people who want to take online classes together and in-person.

Charlotte Readers Podcast, hosted by local author Landis Wade, is the place where Charlotte-area authors and those who visit the Queen City read and discuss their award-winning, published and emerging works - the kind of stories and poems that touch the emotions - followed by the kind of questions and answers that offer depth and insight into the readings.

Pre-registration begins May 20 - don't miss out on this summer's best reading and activities program.
