Meeting Room 3

Want to hang out with some otter-ly adorable furry friends? Float on over the library to see these cute critters on the cam!

Let’s celebrate the rising population of these perfectly amazing pups once threatened by extinction. There will be live stream footage from the Monterey Bay Aquarium in California to watch otters play and swim. You can also create an otter puppet and play games. It’ll be an otterly fantastic time!
