Summer musings...

More Visitors!
We are an open-design, bright, and inviting library, which has heavy community usage. Easily more than 600 people come through our doors each day! They bring smiles, questions, and sometimes frustrations. For many we are the highlight of their week, a cool spot in a hot day, and a welcoming face to help them with their reading and viewing travels. We serve in many roles to our community and are happy to do so.

Some of our customers come daily to read the news or shoot the breeze. Some children have to be almost torn away when it's time to leave because they so enjoy our Kids Connect learning lab, or chatting with the other teens or librarians. When the Teen area is finished soon, it will expand opportunities for many groups to socialize with books. I grew up with a library four doors away and spent my formative years soaking it all in; there is simply no better place to be!

Enjoy your summer, take advantage of our *cool* summer reading club (Thank You to our 40 sponsors = great incentives to read!) and continue to let us know what we can do for you.
