Here's a mid-month update from your library!

We've got a variety of events happening at the Chandler Libraries this fall, including a new nature series, programs for true crime fans and more!

Solar Eclipse programs
Are you ready for the solar eclipse coming Oct. 14, 2023? Your library can help! Come to the Makery at the Downtown Library on Wednesday, Sept. 27, 6 - 7 p.m. for Family Solar Eclipse Science Night. Or, pick up a Grab & Go kit with eclipse viewing glasses and a special activity for kids, on Thursday, Oct. 12 at any Chandler Library location (while supplies last).

The Nature of Things
Chandler Public Library and Chandler Nature Center are partnering in a new series of conversations about contemporary topics in science and the natural world around us. If you are interested in local ecosystems and conservation, as well as Arizona's cultural and natural heritage, this speaker series is for you. View all events.

Twice a year, the library offers a free workshop series for individuals preparing to obtain their citizenship. Lina, a Columbian native, attended this series and recently became a U.S. citizen. She says that the class "allowed me to increase my knowledge and confidence for my citizenship written examination and face to face interview with an immigration officer. Programs like the Chandler Library's Citizenship Workshop, which are free of charge and easily accessible to community members, [support and encourage] minorities to take advantage of equal rights and privileges of becoming a US citizen."

Stop by Sunset Library during regular hours between Sept. 13 and Oct. 31 to see the students' art pieces on display, and learn more about Chandler Contigo.
