At the Perry County Public Library, we offer a variety of programs throughout the year to appeal to a wide variety of interests. Some programs, such as Geek Out and Creative Crafters, meet on a regular basis. Other programs, such as the Comic-Calooza and Summer Reading Program, are once per year events. Be sure to check out our monthly newlsetter, The Library Page, for specific times & see what programs are just around the bend!  If you have any questions or would like to preregister for a program, contact our Youth Services Librarian, Jessica Chandler at (606) 436-2475 ext. 209 or by email at [email protected].
