Lynda Winfield, our librarian, now has a sheet at the check out counter for people to write the name of a book they have enjoyed. This will help patrons choose a book when they are wondering what to read.
We are very pleased to have the interest shown by our new principal at the Longview Elementary School, Andrea Laubman and Danielle Bushchman, teacher of grades 5/6 who have paid a visit to the library with their students. This is very special and we hope there will be more of them to come.
For Valentine’s day there will be a scavenger for youth who drop in.
Lynda will be having a seed exchange again soon, as last years was so successful. Watch for more about this on the bulletin board.
New books to the library are: 5 novels by Katie O’Connor and Hang the Moon by Jeannette Walls. Also, Making Great Relationships by Rick Hanson.
Freedom to Read Week is February 9th.-25th. This is an annual event that encourages Canadians to think about and reaffirm their commitment to intellectual freedom.
