This is the
busiest time of year for Outreach at Decatur Public Library. We have 6 community
events we will be attending to give away books and candy this month. We hope
you can join us for one or more of them if you have little ones. The list of
all programs at DPL and all Outreach events can be found at www.myDPL.org/events .
If you’ve been in
the library lately, then you know we are getting our much-needed HVAC repair
work done. At this moment in time, the mezzanine area (non-fiction), is closed
due to the work. We expect that the fiction area will be closed starting some
time next week. If you are a reader and come to the library regularly to check
out books, you might want to stock up on fiction and check out extra this
week. Books can be renewed online once
you sign into your account or you can call Public Services and we will renew or
extend your check out period while the work is taking place.
The 44th Annual Quilt Show at DPL is on hold until the repair work is finished and we can get the library cleaned up. We will have a quilt show, but for now we cannot set a date. If you would like to reserve a space for a quilt or two, please contact Rhonda in the Marketing and Outreach office. We will contact the quilters who have reserved space in the show as soon as we have more information on dates for the show.
If you are taking
part in the Adult Reading Challenge, there are only 2 more clues to be
released. As we are closing in on the end of this era, let’s read something
from the year Taylor was born. The October clue is to read a book either set
in 1989 or first published in 1989.
Happy Reading!
