Spring Break at the Castro Valley Library gives kids a chance to have fun with friends old and new at special activities every weekday. Monday was LEGO Club’s “Space” event, which had 20 contest entries, and a “block party”.
Tuesday through Thursday, there were activities from the popular Daring Book for Girls and the Dangerous Book for Boys. Tuesday was “Best Paper Airplane Ever” Day, and Wednesday featured colorful spools of plastic lacing that was made into lanyards, key chain fobs, bracelets and other creative and unique jewelry items by kids of all ages. Join us Thursday from 2-3pm for another fun craft!

The Castro Valley Library is one of the places you can still find tax forms. We have both both Federal and State forms for you to come in and select at the Library, or you may follow these links to download and print what you need from the web. For Federal forms go to the IRS Website. California tax forms can be found at http://ftb.ca.gov/.
If you do not have to file a 2007 tax return for tax purposes, you still need to file to receive the economic stimulus payment. If you have over $3000.00 in Social Security or other qualifying income you are eligible.Find Information and Forms for Stimulus Rebate Here
What do the Castro Valley Library and Paul Revere have in common? APRIL 18th.
The poem goes “on the eighteenth of April, in seventy-five, Hardly a man is still alive who remembers that famous day and year”.
That date is about to be famous for another reason here in Castro Valley. We are finally breaking ground on our new library on Friday April 18th 2008!!
You are invited to join the Alameda County Board of Supervisors, and the Alameda County Library at the Ground Breaking for the New Castro Valley Library.
Please join us at 3:30 pm, 3600 Norbridge Ave. Castro Valley for this long awaited community triumph.
