She Turned the Library Into a Forest, and Kids Have Never Been the Same. Randi Monley walked into the Minot Public Library’s children’s section years ago and saw something most people would have just accepted. She saw a space that needed to come alive. What followed was a years-long dream that became a full forest-themed remodel, complete with a stage, reading nooks, a slide, and a grand reopening in January 2024 that drew families from across the city. Christine Staley & Corey Long sat down with Randi and what came out of that conversation matters. When someone decides that kids in Minot deserve a space that sparks their imagination, and then actually builds it, that is exactly the kind of story this podcast exists to tell.
