New Books

Just added to the children's chapter book collection are two new books in the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series. We also have added to the first 5 books in the Percy Jackson series to our young adult fiction section. They have been very busy books, being checked in and out a lot in the past few weeks!

Volunteers Are The Best!

The next time you visit the library, take a moment to thank the volunteer working to keep the doors open so you can come in to check out materials. Our volunteers are very dedicated community members, some of whom have been working for over 8 years to keep this library open and dynamic. At this time we have 15 people who take time out of their busy schedules to keep our services accessible to you. Let them know how much you appreciate them!

Rainy Days Good For Reading

Feeling a little bored on these rainy days? Come down and check out some books to keep you busy when the weather is keeping you inside. We have quite a lot of new titles in right now. We also have a patron who has been working on our radio show collection so we will have some classic radio shows available on CD's within the next couple of weeks. CBS Mystery Theater anyone?

Writer's Group Reminder

The next Writer's Group meets this Wednesday, March 31 at 6:30 pm in the library. This newly formed group has been popular and dynamic and encourages anyone with a love of writing to join them. Bring something along to share with the group if you like! Writer's meet the last Wednesday of each month at 6:30 pm.

Grants!

We would like to thank the Chambers Family Foundation for their generous support of the library. Their grant funding has enabled us to continue offering a quality children's story time program each week and helps to make our Summer Reading Program one of the most successful in rural Lane County. We would also like to thank the Libri Foundation for their award to the library of a BOOKS FOR CHILDREN grant which will enable us to add 60 books to our children's collections. Both these awards go such a long way toward helping the library continue offering quality programs and dynamic collections. Our community is very fortunate to have such wonderful supporters!
