Crafting is very popular at East Brunswick Public Library (2 Jean Walling Civic Center). To better serve DIYers, the library is now providing access to Creativebug, an online crafting class and video service.

"Our community is really into crafting," said Stephanie Filippone, Adult Services Manager. "Whether it be the Crafter Dark programs for adults or the crafting activities for children, many of our most popular library programs involve making something."

"Creativebug allows us to provide our customers with access to thousands of art and crafting classes online," she added. "We were amazed by the variety of patterns and instructions that the service offers."
