Christmas Vendors Event

From Tuesday, December first until Saturday, December 19, 2020, different vendors will present their goods at the entrance of your library, on the balcony, and the premises of the former library building. On your way or coming back from your library, you can buy special food and drinks, Christmas gifts such as handicrafts, perfumes, toys, health products will be for sale. The opening hours of the boots are 8.30 a.m. – 4 p.m. all days of the week except on Sunday.
