Did you know the library offers FREE computer classes for Adults? All you have to do is come to the library at 12:00 noon each Wednesday and meet with our Reference Librarian, Gwendolyn. She teaches a new topic each class and no registration is required. So, if you are looking to gain those basic computing skills, why not give it a try? 

Are you thinking ahead and looking for a place to volunteer this summer? Come to an orientation and learn more. Sessions are held the first Thursday of each month at 4:00 pm. If you are under 18, be sure to have your parent or guardian complete the application in advance. Volunteer hours are flexible! We hope to see you there.  

Just a little note to let folks know that the genres (i.e. mystery, westerns and science fiction) are now part of the larger fiction collection. What does that really mean? If you are looking for James Patterson or Janet Evanovich, you only have to look in ONE place! Every book they wrote will be right next to each other. If you are looking for the just your favorite genre, they are still really easy to find. The book labels will guide you and they are all clearly marked!  If ever you have a question, please come to the desk. We are always happy to help!  

Today the library celebrated Read an eBook Week at our one-on-one Tech Tutors Table. Patrons have been stopping by all day to get their specific questions answered. Many folks didn't know they could use their library cards to download free eBooks! If you missed the tutoring session, stop by the information desk for assistance. Also, online assistance is available. Why not celebrate with us and check out an eBook today. They are free with your library card!

Looking for something fun and unconventional to do this Spring Break? Why not come to the library and go on a camel ride? Yes, that's right. Thanks to the Friends of the Northwest Library, on Monday, March 12th at 3:00 PM, the library will have an actual camel, ready to ride! Stay for crafts, meet Menchie and experience other Spring Break fun! 

Don't dump the bottles! Turn them into something beautiful. Come and find out how to make a bouquet of flowers from  old bottles! Craft starts at 12:00 noon on March 6th. Please note this will be our last Adult Craft Class for awhile. Don't miss out! 

On Saturday, March 17th, a charter bus will pick up the first 50 people and take us to the Museum of Fine Arts. We will have free admission upon arrival! No driving, parking or admission hassles; just fine family fun!
