Lending Libraries Come To Downtown Douglasville

Douglasville will unveil its new Lending Libraries Program in Downtown Douglasville soon.

DOUGLASVILLE, GA – To celebrate Dr. Seuss’ birthday, in partnership with the Downtown Development Authority, Douglas County Library, the Convention and Visitor’s Bureau, and the Cultural Arts Council, Main Street Douglasville will be unveiling its new Lending Libraries Program in Downtown Douglasville on Friday, March 1.

The Lending Libraries program is an effort to inspire a passion for reading and creativity by creating a book-exchange opportunity in the City of Douglasville. Books donated by the Douglas County Library will be available 24/7 for readers to borrow and exchange at their convenience.

Douglasville Main Street’s mission, as always, is to give people another reason to visit or make Downtown a destination,” Main Street Manager Brieana Watts said. “We’re excited to bring another attraction to Downtown that ignites both creativity, and a sense of community, in a fun and interactive way.”
