Please call 519-925-2168 or email us at info@shelburnelibrary.ca for assistance.  Due to the current Lockdown, we have had to put our video taping of our Community Readers on hold for the time being. We will resume as soon as we are able. Teen Scene: The winner of the Teen #WinterReads2021 will be announced at the beginning of next week, so make sure to get as many books logged as you can by January 31! Celebrate Black Authors Challenge: For the month of February, Teens can participate in the Celebrate Black Authors Challenge! If you check out a book by a Black author, you will receive 1 ballot into the draw for a signed copy of Angie Thomas' Concrete Rose. If you send in a review of the books you've been reading to jwyse@shelburnelibrary.ca, you can earn 2 extra ballots per book! To coincide with this challenge, YOUR Library will be highlighting books by Black authors weekly on our YouTube channel, to help your TBR piles grow! Children's Programs: Please contact us and we can put                     together a specially curated bag of books for your child. Email the ages and interests of your child to children@shelburnelibrary.ca and we will happily pick out a selection of books for you. The Children's Library has also purchased a copy of every Forest of Reading book for 2020-2021. If you need assistance to find out which books are in your child's Forest of Reading age bracket, we can help you determine that as well. We are live on Facebook every Thursday evening at 7:00 pm for Sleepy Story Time! Please join us this week for a bedtime story so that we can connect virtually say hello.
