September Gauntlets

There have been a lot of changes at DPL in the last few months with more on the way. We launched our new logo (see below) in August.  There are a few changes in store for September as well.  First, the library will be closed Tuesday, September 20th through Thursday, September 22nd for replacement lights to be installed in the 20 ft bays in the main area. While we are closed, the main area walls will also get some needed repairs and a fresh coat of paint. At some point in the near future we will also be installing new carpet. We hope you will be patient as we undergo these much needed improvements to the facility.

The main reason most of you checked this blog is for the September gauntlets for the Adult Reading Challenge, and here they are.
If you are suffering Olympic withdrawal, this one is just for you. Read any author who is a former Olympic athlete or professional athlete. The library has many auto biographies and non-fiction books written by both. There are also some authors in the mystery section who have competed at the top of their chosen sport.
The second gauntlet is a choice between 2 authors: Stephen King or Jackie Collins. Stephen King was born on September 21, 1947. You will find his books in the fiction, non-fiction, mystery, CD fiction, graphic novels, and eBooks sections of the Library. He is one of the best-selling authors of all time. Jackie Collins died on September 19, 2015. She wrote over 30 novels and most all of them made it to the New York Times best seller list. You will find her in the fiction and CD fiction areas of DPL.
Happy Reading!
