The following is a weekly newsletter from the Shelburne Public Library 

Teen Scene

We know you're looking forward to a much-deserved break over the holidays, and we could help make it more enjoyable by putting together a bag of books just for you! Whether you're into fantasy, Manga, or a good rom-com, we've got you covered. Send an email to frontdesk@shelburnelibrary.ca, or drop by during our open hours and ask for some recommendations!

Upcoming events:

Cinnamon Ornaments – December 21st @ 4pm

Children`s Programming

‘Tis the season for warm and cozy books! Stock up on your festive reads now, and look forward to many evenings snuggled up with a good book. 

Do you have Tweens and Teens at home? This month, the registration for our new Tween & Teen program “Booking It” will open. This completely new program will have a featured novel with weekly activities based on themes occurring in the story, and video instructions to accompany each activity on YouTube. Each participant will have a copy of this novel to take home and read at their leisure. Everyone will be provided with a customized bookmark each week that includes thought-provoking questions and an opportunity to express themselves creatively (with doodles!) What better way to start off the New Year than with a new program!

Oh what fun it is to BUILD a one horse open sleigh! As always, we are posting weekly LEGO challenges on our Facebook and Instagram accounts. Who will be the best builder this week - who knows?

Questions about programming, pictures of LEGO challenges and craft creations can all be sent to children@shelburnelibrary.ca.
