PLYMOUTH LIBRARY

15700 36th Ave. N.
Plymouth , MN 55446




Biking along Theodore Wirth Parkway and the Luce Line Trail, we arrive at the Plymouth Library.  Upon entering I notice the large circular stained glass artwork on the west windows.  As I get a closer look, there is a cool "literary layer" to this beautiful art piece --  be sure to take a look.

I wandered along the world language collection, which includes a variety of adult and children's books in Spanish, Hindi and Korean language materials, to name just a few.  The staff takes a poll with the library patrons and community to determine which "world language conversation group" to focus on each year.  Spanish Club is always popular.  Join the World Language Club on Monday nights this year.  Parlez vous francais?

As the sky starts to darken, we decide to cut our library tour day short and head home via Medicine Lake Regional Trail.  We make it back home after a 30 mile ride just in time as the rain arrives.  A successful day.  A beautiful bike ride.  A day of learning about one of the many ways our libraries engage their community... and we stayed dry!
