Make September your time to set some new reading goals for education, edification, and entertainment at the Boulder City Library! The library is home to thousands of books in multiple formats so if you received a new reader like a Kindle for the holidays, now is a good time to check out the Libby by Overdrive app for ebooks and audiobooks. Prefer a more traditional option, like an actual book book? They’ve got you covered there as well! Did you know Boulder City Library patrons in good standing can request titles from any library in the Las Vegas Clark County Library District (LVCCLD)? If you’re not sure how to get your hands on the latest biography or maybe you’ve got your eye on a new healthy eating cookbook, visit the library and ask how you can request books.
Library closures for the month are:
Monday, September 1, 2025 Labor Day holiday. Regular hours resume Tuesday, September 2, 2025.
Regular operating hours for the library are as follows: Monday thru Thursday from 10:00AM to 8:00PM, and Friday thru Sunday from 10:00AM to 5:00PM. The library is located at 701 Adams Boulevard and is online 24 hours a day HERE. You can reach the circulation desk with questions, to sign up for classes, and to receive other general information by calling (702) 293-1281.
Fall is just around the corner and that means it’s time to grab some books, curl up in a favorite space and get to reading! Let’s see what’s happening at the library in September!
