Happy Halloween from the Washington Public Library! It was great to see all the costumes at the YMCA Trunk or Treat! May the Force be with You this Halloween!




Today, many family and friends of Terry Sullentrup had the honor of attending his induction into the Missouri Veterans Hall of Fame. We miss Terry and are so proud of his service to our country and our fire department.


Did you know that the library is a Franklin County drop-off location for the Warners' Warm-Up Winter Coat Drive? The donation box is located in the main entrance and donations will be accepted through Sunday, November 3.

Washington voters:

Please avoid any outdoor burning!

Consider leaving some of your leaves in garden beds to provide a haven for invertebrates and pollinators. The leaves provide shelter and moisture and help suppress the weeds. By keeping leaves out of the street and out of the storm drains, you will help reduce flooding and reduce water pollution.
