LIBRARIES
Zug Canton has several community libraries, mostly with German books (called a bibliothek) but also some wonderful toy libraries too (a ludothek). Each ludothek has a different membership fee.
Many of the bibliotheks have regular events for both children and adults so keep a look out at your local library. They are also useful for adults and teenagers who need a quiet place to do some work.
