Local's Tip
Most kids' programs are drop-in, but some fill up and ask you to register ahead. Every branch is closed on Sunday, and all but Pack Memorial are closed Monday too.
What the locals say
Asheville parents plan whole weeks around the library calendar, and kids who come for LEGO Club tend to leave with a stack of books.
