Bold Plans-Big Dreams
Building Your Place in Riverside
To celebrate the Centennial of the Burnham Plan, the Riverside Public Library is inviting children of all ages to mark their place on the map of Riverside. Interested participants will be asked to build replicas of their homes or businesses, and will have the opportunity to become part of Riverside’s Big Map which will be on display beginning in August. Replicas of schools, churches and other major landmarks will also be included. If you are interested in participating in this activity, please sign up at the Youth or Adult Services departments. You will be contacted as more information becomes available. This event is guaranteed to be BIG FUN!

          MORE PUZZLING THAN EVER!
The Riverside Friends of the Library are excited to announce their newest fund raising project - A jigsaw puzzle of the map of Riverside! This exact replica of the Friends’ Riverside Street Map is an 11 x17, 100 piece puzzle. The puzzle will premiere at the Garden Walk, June 28th and will sell for $10.  After the 28th, puzzles may be purchased at the Library. What better way to learn the streets and landmarks of Riverside than with this great map puzzle! All proceeds benefit the Riverside Public Library.
