The Silver City Public Library held its annual Love Your Library Dayon Saturday, Feb. 9. In spite of the white flakes falling from the sky, the library had plenty of volunteers helping the children and adults with crafts, snacks, storytelling, singing, and games. The best part for many was receiving free books.
