Adult Summer Reading Challenge

Many of you completed the Lingo Learner badge last week by learning basic Pirate on Mango Languages. You have a few more days to complete this week's World Traveller badge! We look forward to your answers for that badge!

Great Divide Challenge

Despite the heat, our top steppers for last week were: Nancy Kratky (189,656), Debra Keefe (171,556), and Marie Burnett (103,265)

Teen Scene:

The first week of the TSRC 2020 is over, and we were very excited to see all of the vessels you have selected for your Time Capsules. Each week the Beanstack app will allow you to complete a new badge associated with the creation of your time capsule. If you haven't already, this week's task requires some thinking and reflecting on your part, so login to Beanstack and see what questions you'll have to answer!

Our most popular books read by TSRC participants this week come from the Hunger Games series, which isn't all that surprising now that Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes has been released! Watch our catalogue and place your holds once it becomes available!

Online Resources

Our online resources are still available 24/7! This week, challenge yourself to check them out—you could find a new recipe, a new book, or even a new language!

Make sure you receive our Newsletters to keep you up to date and informed about our services and new programs by contacting info@shelburnelibrary.ca
