Blind Date with a Book
Go on a blind date with a book without ever seeing the cover or reading the synopsis!
From February 1-28, the library will have a new display, Blind Date with a Book. All books on this display will be wrapped so you can't see the book! Pick out your next read by only reading key words or phrases about the book. Take it home, unwrap it, and see your next read. We hope you enjoy your blind date with a book!
School And Craft Supply Cart
Help yourself to any of the school and craft supplies we have on our supply cart in the library. It is located by the study tables next to our nonfiction section. Maybe you need some craft supplies to finish a school project! Or a scientific graphing calculator to finish your math homework! Whatever it is you need, we have it! And if we don't, we can try our best to get it! All we ask is that you don't take the supplies out of the library, and only use what you need, so everyone can have a chance to enjoy it!
Supplies on cart include: Pens, pencils, highlighters, pencil sharpeners, erasers, notebook paper, copy paper, stapler, staple remover, scissors, craft scissors, rubber bands, white out, rulers, calculator, scientific calculator, TI-84 scientific graphing calculator, compass, protractor, rulers, glue sticks, glue, tape, markers, colored pencils, crayons, construction paper, scrap paper, poms, jewels, googly eyes, craft sticks, modeling air dry clay, decorative tape, yarn, twine, ribbon, foam sheets, and pipe cleaners. Plus there will be more to come!
