This January, our libraries wanted to warm up their spaces with some fun wintry door decor (And a little friendly competition)!
At YCL, we “a-door” our library staff, volunteers, and the wonderful programs and services they provide to the community. Each location is unique in what they have to offer – including their creativity!

The Contest
Our libraries were encouraged to let their creativity shine and participate in a door decorating contest. The only rule: It must be winter-themed.
