**Update 2/27/23** The library has removed all covid restrictions. I'm also updating the hours below, per the librarian who helped me place the cache. Go and get it!
This cache is placed inside Brentwood Library, with the help and support of the library director. We hope that this cache encourages people to utilize their public library and fosters an interest in the local community. Inspiration for placing this cache came from adventures with my mini-cachers and thus, this is intended as a very friendly hide for kids. Great cache for small swag and travelbugs.
To get the smilie, you need to search the online card catalogue.

If you can, please bring your own stamp to leave in our logbook, along with the title of your favorite book!
