The Library will be starting a LEGO club on May 24. It is open to all children aged 6 -12. We plan to have LEGOs available for kids on the fourth Thursday of every month from 3:45 – 6:45. Many thanks to those who donated LEGO sets and pieces that enabled us to start this club. Looking forward to seeing you have some fun at the library!

This year for our summer library program we plan to Dream Big, Read! with a Circus of Dreams. Sign-up begins May 21 and our kick-off program will be May 29 at 10:00. Look for more details under the Library Info tab.
The Library is forming a Scrabble playing group! A kickoff meeting is scheduled for February 2 at 6:00 pm. Stop by and have refreshments, visit with other potential players, and pick a name for your group. The group is planning on meeting the 2nd and 4th Thursday of the month from 5:00 -7:00 pm at the Library. If you cannot attend the kickoff, feel free to contact Nancy Burns at 486-2610. We’re having a special book sale day on February 2, Ground Hog Day from 1:00 – 7:00. Stop by the basement and load up on some great reads for this winter. Cost is $2.00 per bag. This week, we’re signing folks up for the 11th annual Love My Library Adult Reading Program! The program runs through the end of March. During the winter it’s easy to get into a rut, waiting for warmer weather and spring activities. Here’s where coming to the Library for some fun events will help you beat the winter blahs! You sign up for the program, read whatever books you want to read and come to the 3 -4 book talks scheduled, to share with the group what you liked or didn’t like about the books you read. We serve lunch or dinner (usually made by the staff) and sometimes have some games to play. At the end of the program we’ll schedule a final book talk and party, complete with prizes. Stop by the library or call us (785-486-3326) to sign up! Our first book talk will be on Feb 6 at 5:30 – we’ll provide a soup dinner. During the month of December the Library sponsored Food for Fines – 1 can of food for every $1.00 of fines. Food was distributed to the Ministerial Alliance. We are happy to report that the Library was able to donate 89 cans of food to this effort. Fun! Refreshments! Spin the Wheel for some GREAT prizes! Check out the newest books! We’ve got some great series going for this group. All of this is for our Teens and Tweens (High School and Middle School kids) November 28 – December 1. Looking forward to seeing you at the library! If you haven’t had a chance to read the Hunger Games Trilogy you still have time before the movie comes out. Check out this movie trailer on YouTube The Hunger Games . The library has all of the books so call, check our on-line catalog and place a hold or stop by the library to get your copy to read. Come to the Library, November 15 at 9:00 for a special Story time! The Library staff are celebrating Kansas Reads to Preschoolers Week. We’ll have a great story and a snack for the kids. |
