From the library... Springtime is almost officially here. As this school year comes to an end and a season of growth and renewal begins, come visit us at the library. With the warmer weather, many of us will be planning trips, enjoying outdoor activities, or beginning a new hobby. However you decide to make the most of the longer, sunnier days, the library offers a variety of free online resources available to assist you, in addition to a variety of informative and fun programs for all ages. Please be sure to join us in the library auditorium on May 20th at 11am for a Joy of Painting program with Bob Ross Certified instructor, Alexander Iliuta, who will be demonstrating landscape painting while sharing his enthusiasm and expertise with the Bob Ross Method. Also, this year’s Summer Reading Program is coming up. Registration begins on Tuesday, May 30th, and runs through Saturday, July 15th. This year’s theme is “All Together Now.” Make plans to bring the whole family, and join us for several exciting weeks of summer reading performers.
