**Brighton District Library Hosts "March Madness" Tournament to Celebrate Services and Programs**

Brighton, CO – In a creative twist on the March Madness season, the Brighton District Library has launched its unique tournament to showcase the wide range of programs, services, and departments that make the library special. Starting this month, patrons are invited to participate by voting for their favorite library offerings in a friendly competition.

Some of the contenders in this tournament include popular programs such as Storytimes, Chair Yoga, Baby Rave, and Genealogy Programs. The library is also featuring unique services like 3D Printing, Vinyl Records, the Library of Things, and the Inspo Lab, as well as local-focused initiatives like the Brighton Room for local history and the Parker Nature Preserve.

Youth and teen programs are also in the spotlight, with options like Book Boxes for different age groups, Youth and Teen Reading Challenges, The Fish Tank, and Miss Carla's Playhouse. For families, the Learning Center play area and the Learning Journey Walkway offer engaging spaces for children. Adult-oriented programs like the Local Author Showcase and Norma Gray Art Gallery highlight the library’s commitment to arts and community engagement.

Library patrons can show their support by “liking” or “loving” their favorite services on social media. Votes will be tallied weekly to determine which programs advance through the tournament brackets. The ultimate winner will be crowned at the end of the competition.

This fun and interactive event encourages the community to explore all that the Brighton District Library has to offer. Whether it’s reserving a study room, enjoying the Fireplaces, exploring eResources, or attending SummerFest, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.

To cast your vote and follow the competition, visit the library’s social media pages and join in celebrating the diverse offerings that make the Brighton District Library an inviting hub for the community.
