According to a Facebook post from the library, during the 1950s the GRPL Bookworm visited schools and festivals to share info about the library s collection, resources, and upcoming events.
The Bookworm brought books to kids during the summer months when they were out of school. Those antennae perched atop the Bookworm s head? Apparently they d light up when the bookworm encountered a fellow reader.

Share February 19, 2021, 11:00 PM The Detroit area has no shortage of pizza joints. So when Mootz Pizzeria popped up at 230 Library St. in downtown in January 2019, we didn t get that excited. Then we had a couple slices and changed our mind, quickly discovering it was a contender. Now, two years later, Carlos Parisi is featuring the joint on Deadline TV s Detroit Digest. He samples the pizza, meatballs, pasta and a stromboli a turnover with Italian cheeses and meats.
Hours:
Sunday-Thursday 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Friday and Saturday 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. (313) 243.1230. Watch our Detroit Digest show:
