Check Out the Air Conditioning at Canyon Lake’s Library

Tye Preston Memorial Library, across from Canyon Lake Gorge, doubles as a cooling center for anyone trying to beat the heat.

Putting puzzles together is one of several ways to enjoy the air-conditioned splendor of Tye Preston Memorial Libarary.

Temperatures will remain above 100 degrees through Sunday, but the weather forecast for Tye Preston Memorial Library is 72 degrees with a 100% chance of fun things to do.

Library Director Natalie Shults said the public is welcome to visit to seek relief from the sweltering heat.

A library card is not required. Tye Preston Memorial Library (TPML) is located at 16311 South Access Road, Canyon Lake.

Reading is not required, either.

Shults said there are plenty of other ways to stay — and be — cool at the library:
