Bellevue Public Library Adult Displays for March

Every month there are special adult displays at BPL– some are new displays and some are new books in ongoing displays. These displays are located on the black tower, on the front and back of the arch going into the adult reading area, on a bookshelf at the far end of the circulation desk, and at the information/reference desk area.. All titles are available for check-out.

Often the displays are based on special events, programs or themes. Sometimes the display topics are suggested by staff, but we also welcome suggestions from patrons!
