Library Corner - Aug. 20

We are in the dog days of summer. The expression dog days refers to the hot, sultry days of summer experienced in the months of July and August. Come to the Library and cool off with a good book. We have Story Time every Thursday at 4. We have volunteers who come every week to read to the children and then they do a craft afterwards. We are also honoring “Food for Fines” thru August. Bring new, non-perishable food items for credit towards library fines. Receive $.50 credit for each item brought. This helps our patrons and our food pantries out this summer.
