Learn how scientists and poets express their observations in the world in different ways.
This program promotes scientific thinking (observation and critical thinking) and poetic thinking (observation and imagination) around different themes for kids to be involved with the exploration and share discoveries of their own.
Students will be at each program to help guide exploration and connect observations. This series is provided in partnership with the Natural History Museum of Utah.

The pleasing design of the Anderson-Foothill Branch has two unique elements as part of its plan. The first is a passive solar energy design that includes earth berming, window placement for solar heating, and zone supplemental heating/cooling. The second element of this 14,900 square foot community library built in 1985, expanded in 1992 and in 2002, is a modular design.
The Anderson-Foothill Branch has a meeting room available for public use with tables, chairs, and a projector screen. The Anderson-Foothill Branch's outdoor amphitheater is a popular location for summer concerts. Free parking is available to the north and south of the building, and free wi-fi access is provided throughout the library.
