At the Library

Fall is definitely underway in the northland and the library is in full gear with lots of fall programming. To get things started we have storytime every Thursday morning (through December 13th, when we'll take a break for the holidays) at 10:30 am. Children of all ages are welcome to come with their parents or caregivers and enjoy about 20 minutes of stories, songs and rhymes.

Tuesday, September 25th is Family Night and we'll celebrate the arrival of fall with games, stories and crafts. Families with children of all ages are invited to come and enjoy the fun. No registration necessary. That night will also be the Friends of the Library book sale from 5:30 - 7:30 pm.

And Borderland Reads is back with another book we encourage you to read and talk about in the community. To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee is the fall title. We are now attempting to do three Borderland Read titles a year. The summer title will be appropriate for families to read together and the reading age of the title is late elementary or early junior high. The fall title will be a classic and then we'll read something more contemporary for winter. Everyone is encouraged to stop by the library and check out a copy of the book and read or read it again before the discussion to be held on Thursday evening, November 15th at 7:00 pm in the library meeting room. Because the title is also a wonderful movie, we are working with community education and have arranged a viewing of the movie at the Falls High School Library on Monday, November 12th at 6:30 pm. Refreshments will be provided for both events.

Stay tuned for further upcoming events at the library.
