The month of July
in the Library world means that Summer Reading is half over. To the rest of
this country it means fireworks, grilling, celebrating Independence, and hot
weather. Whatever this month means for you, think about spending part of it in
the air conditioned library or at one of the events out in the community we
will be attending. There will be
programs for kids to learn about Alabama scientists, civil rights, Native
Americans, Outer Space, and wild animals. For adults we will have a book club
meeting, a program on the Apollo Space Program, and the Friends Luncheon
(tickets on sale now).
We hope you can
join us for one of the programs or just come out and support the library at the
Summer Showcase at the Decatur Mall on Thursday, July 18th from 2:00
to 5:00 pm or at 3rd Friday downtown in Casa Grande Park on Friday,
July 19th from 5:30 to 7:30 pm.
For the Adult
Reading Challenge the task this month is Freedom.
Celebrate your freedom to read. This task is open to any book you choose to read.
If you have a book you wanted to use on the challenge but couldn’t make it fit
anywhere or there is a book you want to read but haven’t because you didn’t
know if it would fill a task- here it is.
Happy Reading!
