Library History:

Completed in November 2008, The Queen Creek library was the first municipal building in Queen Creek designed and constructed with green building features and has been LEED Gold certified by the U.S. Green Building Council. The library was featured in the January 2009 edition of Cities Go Green magazine, a publication that focuses how local governments can become sustainable as quickly and effectively as possible.

The library was designed to provide a gathering place for people of all ages. It includes the Mary Lou Fulton Children's Center, Teen Oasis, general reading areas, public computers, study rooms, conference rooms and Town recreation programming space. The Town received a $1 million grant from Fulton Homes for the construction of design elements in the children’s and teen’s sections of the new library.

The library is a partnership between the Town of Queen Creek and the Maricopa County Library District. The Queen Creek branch library provides materials in all formats as well as adult and juvenile programming.

 

QC Library: Hobbit Party

All Ages

We're partying in the shire, lads & lassies! Don your best hobbit/elvish/dwarven/ranger/wizard attire and join us in the Hall of Zane the Grey for a morning of merriment before our film screening. Participate in games of skill and cunning, craft your own elven bracelet inscribed with your Name of Power, hear music and learn dances from Hobbiton and Rivendell alike, plus a costume contest! But what is a hobbit party without feasting? From 12-1, bring your blanket and second breakfasts (or "elevenskies," or even luncheons) and join us on the green for a picnic with hobbits! Music, games, more dancing, and fun abound! But be sure to return to the Hall of Zane the Grey by 1 p.m. for the film! All ages are welcome! Since this is a family event, please leave the armory in the keep. Violators will be eaten by the dragon.

For information visit the Maricopa County Library District's Web site or call 602-652-3000.
