- Call the library with your list of books/audiobooks, and if those books are currently available we will set up a time for you to come in and get them.

Summer Reading will begin on May 29. Imagine your Story!!
- May 29 pick up folders and start counting books. Children and teens will still get prizes for every 5 books they read up to 25 books. Reading 25 books will earn them a ticket to our end of summer party that is tentatively set for July 24 depending on Covid-19 guidelines. After 25 books, the top reader in each age bracket gets a grand prize.
- Adults will use the author’s last name to complete a bingo board. Every bingo is one chance to win a gift certificate to a local restaurant.
- Programming will be different this year. The usual every Friday programming will not happen, but Facebook videos and activities can be viewed through August.
- May 29—Dr. Magical Balloons will be on our Facebook page
- June 12—ScienceTellers will be on our Facebook page
- At this time, July performers will be in-house, but are subject to change depending on COVID-19.
- This year we are introducing a new component to summer reading. We will be providing an activity pack filled with fun ideas related to our theme that children, teens, and adults can complete at home. They will have the opportunity to follow us on Facebook and share their creations on the scheduled dates.
