CONTESTS

There are two new contests to enter if you fancy yourself an artist or author. Visit our Library Kids website for details.

OVER 1,000 !!

The paper chain is officially over 1,000 links long! Thanks to our fabulous readers, the chain is now 1,011 links long. Each link represents a book that has been read. It is beautiful and fun! It is worth a trip to the library just to see it. How many times have you seen a paper chain that is over 1,000 links long? I will get pictures posted, but they don't do it justice. Speaking of pictures, the Children's Department has a Flickr page now. Visit and see the crafts the kids have made.

Mr. Boo it is!



Sorry I didn't get the announcement posted sooner. I have no excuse. I posted it to our webpage, Library Kids, and to our Twitter page, but I just plain forgot to post it here on the blog. I am so sorry! The library staff voted and the winner, by a landslide, was Mr. Boo. The winning name was submitted by Sterling Schurr. Mr. Boo is delighted with his name, although in the picture it doesn't look like it, I assure you, he is smiling.

There were lots of good names to pick from. Thank you to everyone who entered the contest.
