An Afternoon At The Movies

Wednesday, September 24 (an early release day for El Dorado) @ 2 pm the Library is hosting an all ages movie day. Those in attendance will chose to watch either Alvin and the Chipmunks or Good Boy. Both are rated PG. The movie will be shown on the Library's Big Screen. Hope to see you there.

Fall Preschool Story Times have begun again! This week we all made quilt blocks for our 2008 Preschool Story Time Friendship Quilt. The kids each made two blocks, one to take home and one to put in the quilt. They are beautiful. I am excited to get the blocks put together. The quilt will be on display in the Clymer Room. I will post a picture of it when it is done.

Next week we will not have story time so the Friends of the Library can set up for their Fall Book Sale. It is a GREAT opportunity to buy used books. The regular books are priced at $5.00 a bag. If you join the Friends of the Library at the sale, you will get a nice canvas bag filled with books of your choice, and your Friends membership, all for $20.00. Some other books are individually priced. There are also old videos available. They will be setting up for the sale on Thursday. The sale will be open for business Friday, Sept. 19 and Saturday, Sept. 20, in the Clymer Room, during regular library hours.

The following week, September 25, Preschool Story Time will resume with stories about autumn.

BY THE WAY---If you had your picture taken for the El Dorado Times as a winner of the Summer Reading Program, they were published Friday, August, 29th. We have a few copies for sale at the library at the children's desk, or you can get one at the El Dorado Times office.

We will have a very special guest reader on October 9. More on that later…

In the meantime, READ ON!
