A note on book sale donations
Posted December 30th, 2009 by Stephanie Chase
We wanted to let everyone know that we are not currently accepting books for our Annual Book Sale.
Thank you for thinking of the Library; we will be sure to announce when we are once again accepting donations. Please do not leave your donations – it costs the Library money to dispose of donations when we are not accepting them.
Need suggestions for places to bring your unwanted books?

Posted December 28th, 2009 by Stephanie Chase
Are you a library user? Why not take a minute or two and fill in how you use the library in the Library Value Calculator, below.
How much does the library save you? I am pretty lucky to come to work at the Library each day, and, as such, am a very heavy library user. I estimate that I saved almost $7,000 last year using the library rather than purchasing the equivalent materials and services. Not bad!
Julie finds a great new website for getting kids to read.
Posted December 16th, 2009 by Julie Pickett
There are many, many sites on the web that are designed with the purpose of getting kids to read. Some are better than others. Recently I stumbled onto a great one -- James Pattersons Read Kiddo Read. The website is visually appealing with categories presented in a clearly delineated, user-friendly format. The home page features recommended books by age level, followed by contests to enter, books for boys, interviews with authors, books to buy for Christmas and more. Click on a category and more options are at your finger tips.
