Bookends

We are ringing in the New Year with new toys. The library purchased a variety of e-readers (Kindle, Nook and iPad) with the SCEIC/Blandin Broadband contract. Staff has had an opportunity to 'play' with them and Lisa has written out some guidelines on their use. So, if you received an e-reader for Christmas and need some help with getting started, stop by. We invite you to join us Wednesday afternoons at 2 p.m. for a training session in the meeting room. Of course, you are welcome to come in any time. Our readers will be available to use in the library.

During our inventory process we discovered some books that have not circulated recently, but were popular in their day. We have collected these titles and have put them on display as 'Second Chance Books'. We invite you to give them a try.
