If you can't attend, you can make cards at home and donate them at the front desk of the Main Library by Sept. 7. Library hours for the next week are 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday; 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friday and Saturday; closed Sunday and closed Monday for Labor Day. Library volunteers will deliver the cards to first responders at police and fire stations throughout Mesa before 9/11.
