What's New At The Library - November 17, 2009
by Joan Huff

Story time is back in full swing with a celebration of fall with “Clifford and the Big Fall Leaf”. During the week preceding and during the book sale, we had to discontinue story time for lack of space. On Thursdays around 10:15, preschoolers start arriving with mommies in tow. They like to pick out their books and movies for taking home before story time. This is a lively time in the library as well as the time right after the program when participants are showing what they made to whoever will look.

We have started receiving some of our new books. The first shipment was fiction with some bestsellers included. We will be receiving our awarding winning books for 2009 in the next couple of months.. After the first of the year, we will be receiving a large shipment of nonfiction books with general appeal. I am making this prediction based on the grant money I hope to receive. It’s like counting your chickens before they hatch but I’m feeling confident we will get the grant. The library will be closed for the Thanksgiving holidays and now is a good time to get your books and movies . One of my favorite holiday traditions is to celebrate the day after a major holiday by reading a good mystery and watching classic movies all day.
