Stacks Of Comics

Comic book specialty shops and libraries across North America give away comic books every year on the first Saturday of May -- Free Comic Book Day. We encourage you to visit the Library’s partner, Austin Books and Comics at 5002 North Lamar Blvd. and pick up a free comic book on Saturday, May 2. If you can’t make it on Saturday, drop by your nearest Austin Public Library location on Monday, May 4 to get your free comic book. While you’re at it, check out the Library’s graphic novel sections for adults (call number: GN), teens (call number: GNY), and children (call number: GNJ). We also host a Graphic Novels Book Club at 7:00 p.m. every 3rd Wednesday at Halcyon Coffeehouse, 218 W 4th St.
