Meet Beanie the Bookworm – our new mascot!
We discovered Beanie living in our library, cozied up between the pages of the books! Now, Beanie is ready to wriggle out and help us spread the joy of reading and learning.
As our official mascot, Beanie will be around to share fun literacy activities, helpful resources, and tips to help families thrive. Keep an eye out for Beanie at events, in programs, on social media, and maybe even around town.
Beanie loves living among the books at CFL, gardening, and curling up with a good book. But most importantly, Beanie loves to help transform lives through literacy.
Let’s give Beanie a warm welcome as we start this new chapter together!
