It's random and another way for me to share some news. Occasionally, I imagine there will be topics and most definitely photos that have nothing to do with public libraries! Enjoy.

Long time... Programming Galore!

It's been such awhile! Lots of work like everyone else. Got the George Washington Carver Traveling Trunk so that we do some activity with our We the People "A More Perfect Union" Bookshelf. Thanks to the National Museum for its loan to us. Did you know that National Museums have educational trunks that they loan for free?
Jumpstart Read for the Record is happening --- look how we are aiming to break our county record of reading to over 2,000 children on this one day, Oct. 7th!  Thanks to Penguin for supplying us with the Snowy Day Activity Kits! Right now on the Jumpstart website there are wonderful resources for The Snowy Day story time extensions. Absolutely check out how you can get a cut-out shape of Peter and have him appear in places, take a photo and facebook it!
Pig the Pancake is traveling around the county eating pancakes and reading a favorite book If You Give a Pig a Pancake
Looking to launch our new Family Museum Pass Partner too.
2 BIG days, Sept. 25 & Sept. 26th-- Readers' Jamboree Weekend and Summer Reading Celebration at Dutch Wonderland. Bring a free new book, and get a child ticket for Winter Weekend. New Book donations support Reach Out and Read Local efforts.
Oh -- Lancaster Area Association for the Young Child on Saturday too, at Lancaster Mennonite High School.
Chaa!
