Soldotna Public Library

This week, Kenai Peninsula libraries are observing Banned Books Week. The annual awareness campaign is hosted the last week of September by the American Library Association, and promotes books that have faced censorship because of their content.

This year marks a decade since the Soldotna Public Library opened its expanded facility. In celebration of the anniversary, the library held a party, commemorating its progress and the community that made it possible.

This week's workshop will highlight bear safety and discuss an electric fence incentive program. Homeowners will also learn about electric fencing supplies and how they can build their own electric fences.

Organizers postponed the event this afternoon, citing escalating social media discussion and fear for participant safety.
