Summer isn't over yet at the Chelsea Public Library, which has packed its August calendar with something for just about every age group. From toddler story times to teen tournaments to a used book sale that's become a community tradition, there's plenty of reason to stop by the library or the Chelsea Community Center this month. Here's a full rundown of what's on tap.
