Ongoing Programs
Find our gnome!
Our gnome keeps wandering around and we could use your help finding him! If you are going on vacation or having a stay-cation, you can grab your own paper gnome to color and take with you. Snap a photo of you and your gnome and email it to us at bdpl.ref@mcfls.org and we will display your photo and give you a prize!

Keep an eye out this summer for decorated rocks with a label that says Brown Deer Public Library. If you return a rock to the library (or re-hide it and take a picture to show us), we will give you a prize!
