******** School will soon be out! If your child is given a summer reading list, please share it with library staff. The sooner we can help your student get the books they need, the better. Some titles can be found as free eBooks and staff can help you find them. Other titles may be on other school's summer reading list, which means library copies are first come, first served. This makes waiting lists quite long; so please share with staff as soon as possible. ********
