Once your items are available to pick up, you will receive a hold notice by email or text message.
Reading with Rover - The Reading with Rover program is offered exclusively at Henderson Libraries for struggling and unsure readers in grades 1-5. Our unique private reading practice pairs trained reading coaches, their registered therapy dog, and a struggling reader. Reading teams meet weekly at a Henderson Libraries branch.
