The Hibbing Public Library needs your help!

The library is currently short staffed after a recent retirement. If the City Council does not restore funding to fill the open full-time Library Technician position, the library hours will be reduced, beginning Monday, January 23, 2012, by nine (9) hours per week. We need you to contact your council person about this situation! Please see the link below for more information:

Hibbing Ore and More Survey Results Are In!

Thank you for participating in our Brand Measurement Study.  We wanted to measure whether residents were aware of the green "Hibbing > We're Ore and More;" whether they thought of it positively, negatively, or didn't have a strong opinion; and whether or not residents would advocate for (or recommend) Hibbing.  Overall, we had good results!  Please watch and share this link.  The more we all can say positive things about Hibbing, the better our chances will be of drawing retail, visitors and dollars to our community.  It really does make a difference.  Thank you again for keeping the Ore and More spirit going! 


 

Puppets coming to the library!

Street performer Chris Griffith and playwright Shari Aronson started Z Puppets Rosenschnoz in 1998 with some fluorescent paint, a $3 pack of ping pong balls, and inspiration and imagination.  Today, they have fifteen original productions and also bring their workshops to thousands of audiences across the country.

Z Puppets’ performances include a unique blend of live music, zealous humor and hand-crafted puppets.  They will be bringing this extraordinary family experience to story time at the Library on Tuesday, December 13^th at 10:00 a.m.

Everyone is welcome to this free program that is funded by Arrowhead Library System, the Minnesota Library Legacy Fund, and the Hibbing Library.
