Garden ready: Seed Library is now open The Seed Library at the Dearborn Public Library is open to everyone in the community at no charge. Partnering with the Healthy Dearborn coalition, we provide vegetable and flower seeds, information and resources about growing and saving seeds and gardening. We hope that seed library patrons will return some seeds from their harvest to make the Seed Library self-sustaining. The Seed Library will be relocated to the Bryant Branch library during the HFCL renovation project.

A Universe of Stories this Summer! June 17 - July 27, 2019 Dearborn residents, from infants to grown-ups are invited to participate in the Dearborn Public Library's Summer Reading Program.

These tablets, for both adults and teens, come fully loaded with educational content (including topics such as SAT prep, business, English, entrepreneurship, and more), activities for memory retention, and customizable features, such as text size and audio options! They’re easy to use, fun, and don’t require an internet connection! Launchpads are located at the Henry Ford Centennial Library on the second floor, near the audiobooks. This project is funded (in part) with a Library Services and Technology Act Grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services administered by the Library of Michigan.
