Children's Programs: We will be starting our Storytime on Friday, September 20th at 10:30 a.m. for our 2–6 year olds. This is a great time with stories, songs, crafts, and other activities. Please sign up at the library or call us at 519 925-2168. It really helps so we can plan our craft supplies. We do make extras so no one will ever be left out. We would like to start our Toddler program for the 6 to 18 month old children again in October but would really appreciate knowing how many parents are able to attend with their little ones and what day would work best. Please give us a call and we will record the information and get back to interested families. Computer Classes: We will be continuing our one-on -one computer sessions this fall. We will provide assistance with e-mail, Internet, Facebook, MS Office, e-Readers and more! Call in advance or book an appointment at the library. Summer Student Assistants: This week, we are saying goodbye to the last of our summer students, Adam Ferguson. We have had an amazing team of students helping us enhance our programs and enabling us to create and implement several new initiatives. We know you will all join in wishing them well. We have had great feedback ffom you on how friendly and helpful these young University students have been. Our adult programs and our Teen Book Club are continuing and we recommend you check out our website for updates. Silent Auction and Book Sale – November 30, 2013: We have had several calls about our Holiday Home Tour and Silent Auction so thought we had better get the word out. The Holiday Home Tour is planned for every two years. This will enable the committee to present really spectacular homes as in other years. We will be holding our Silent Auction and Book Sale so keep that date open, the last Saturday of November. It is never too early to start gathering treasures to donate for this fundraiser. New Books that have arrived include the following. I just finished reading Death Angel by Linda Fairstein and found it quite gripping. There is some violence but usually as is the case with this type of murder mystery novel, it has happened by the time the book starts. There are just enough twists and turns to keep you guessing. Fiction: About a girl by Lindsey Kelk Emancipation day by Wayne Grady Hunting Eve by Iris Johansen Death angel by Linda Fairstein Forward slash by Louise Voss & Mark Edwards The Last of days by Paul Doherty Mistress by James Patterson The Highway by C.J. Box Under a Texas sky by Dorothy Garlock Ghosts of Bungo Suido by P.T. Deutermann Non fiction: The big disconnect by Catherine Steiner-Adair Canada's road: a journey on the Trans-Canada Highway... by Mark Richardson The Happy Atheist by P.Z Myers   --------------------------------------------------- Images: --------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------- Post date: 2013-09-05 22:39:30 Post date GMT: 2013-09-06 02:39:30 Post modified date: 2013-09-13 13:14:03 Post modified date GMT: 2013-09-13 17:14:03 ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Export of Post and Page as text file has been powered by [ Universal Post Manager ] plugin from www.gconverters.com
