It is hard to believe ,
but we are headed into the holiday season and the end of 2024. Here at DPL the
end of the year is always a busy time. In October we hosted 21 in house
programs, plus the 43rd Annual Quilt Show, and took part in 5
Outreach events outside the library.
That was a lot of programming and event participation! We hope we saw you at some of the in-Library
programs and the outreach events, too.
We will kick-off November by
participating in Downtown Decatur’s Día De Los Muertos Celebration on Saturday,
November 2nd from 11:00am until 5:00pm. Come see us if you are in
the downtown area. This November there will be lots of activities in the Youth
Services department and a couple of programs for teens and adults. Our Friends will host their Holiday Book Fair on
Thursday, November 21st from 2:00 pm to 4:30 pm and on Friday, November 22nd from
10:00 am until 4:30 pm. We would love to see
you at any or all of these programs!
This last task for the 2024 Adult
Reading Challenge is all treat, no trick!
You are getting it a day early and it is an easy one to boot. In the 1920s the most popular dog breed was
the German Shepherd. For the November
task read a book with a German Shepherd as a character in the book.
Don’t forget the deadline to turn
in your Reading Log is Wednesday, November 27th by 6:00 pm. We hope
you enjoyed reading books inspired by the Roaring Twenties and will sign up for
the Adult Reading Challenge again next year.
Happy Reading!
