Join us for STEAM at the Library throughout October
City of Redwood City put out a news release yesterday about our STEAM at the Library October programs. Mayor Diane Howard says of the program: “STEAM at the Library has quickly become a favorite community event and in spite of COVID-19, this year will be just as exciting, entertaining and educational.” The news release covers our current services as well as the news that earlier this summer, the City Council unanimously approved the elimination of overdue fines, citing that fines were punitive and disproportionately impact low income families and minorities. Read it here.
