Join us on Wednesday, December 10 at 6 pm, for a lively discussion of West With Giraffes, by Lynda Rutledge. This emotional novel was inspired by the true story of two giraffes who, in 1938, captivated Depression-era America during a cross-country journey to the San Diego Zoo.  There are copies of the book available inside the library.

Park inside the gated lot (VISITOR LOT 4).  Bring your parking ticket with you inside the library to be validated by library staff.  Parking is FREE if you get your ticket validated.  Parking outside the gated lot may result in a parking violation from the University of Houston.
