August Gauntlets




The library has several fun events lined up for this month. The Round Table Book Club will meet on the 4th, we will be hanging out with the new DCS Superintendent Dan Brigman at 3rd Friday on the 19th, and we will show movies on the 11th and 25th. We hope you can join us for some fun inside and out of the library in August.

Getting stamps for the Reading Challenge just got easier. StephRhonda now has an office that allows for public access without having to ask Circulation or Reference to page us.  Just enter the Library on the 6th Avenue side and turn left to the little hallway between the copy machine and the Circulation Desk.  Our office is the first one on the right.  We will be happy to answer questions and stamp reading logs anytime the sign is posted on the door.

The first gauntlet for this month is an either/or choice: David Baldacci or Elmore Leonard.  Baldacci was born on August 5, 1960 and you will find all of his books at DPL cataloged as Fiction. He has two new books so far this year, with a third set for release on November 15th so odds are good there is one of his books you haven’t read, even if he’s one of your favorite authors. Leonard died on August 20, 2013. He left a long list of books which can be found scattered throughout the library. Some of his books are cataloged as fiction, some westerns, some mystery and even one Young Adult title.

The other gauntlet for August is to read your Favorite Male Author. This is your chance to count that author that hasn’t worked anywhere else on the challenge. We hope this helps with some of the books that were read, even though you didn’t think they would work for the Challenge.

Happy Reading!
