Beginning in September, we will host Storytime each Friday at 10 a.m. in the park across from the library in the small shelterhouse. If school closes due to COVID-19, Storytime will be hosted via ZOOM and/or YouTube.
September 25th - "Getting Sick" Storytime at 10 a.m. in the park for area preschoolers.
The Cover 2 Cover Book Club will resume in September as well. Our first book is The Darwin Affair by Tim Mason. If you are interested, you may stop in and pick up a copy or download the Ebook or audiobook from our Libby or Overdrive digital libraries. Just download the apps and you will need your library card and pin numbers. Come join others who love reading for a great season of book discussion either in-person or via ZOOM! Discussions take place each month on the 4th Wednesday at 7 p.m. |
Our Summer Reading program participants have read 1267 books! This means we have reached our goal and surpassed it! Therefore, the library and sponsors (First Bankers Trust, Beck Insurance, Renegade Repair, Casey's General Store, and The Shupe Shack) will contribute towards the purchase of a library book return to be placed at our new elementary school. It should be in place before September 14th! GREAT JOB EVERYONE WHO PARTICIPATED!!
