I'M BE-PUZZLED

Submitted by Anonymous on Wed, 03/02/2011 - 9:38am

One of my favorite pasttimes is putting puzzles together. I have discovered many of our customers who also like doing puzzles and often have made arrangements to meet someone at the library to exchange an armload of their puzzles with each other. There have also been a lot of sllightly used puzzles to purchase from the Friends of the Library. Are you a puzzle person? Help us put together a puzzle while you visit with a friend and meet some new friends any time we are open. There will be a puzzle board with an ongoing puzzle on it. A specific puzzle day that is set aside is each Wednesday - ALL DAY! Come in as early as 10:00 a.m. and stay as long as you want until 6:00 p.m. Or come and go when it fits your schedule.

To celebrate, on Thursday, during storytime at 10:40, we will be having a very special Dr. Seuss themed morning. To learn more about Dr. Seuss, the author, go here. For fun games for your children to play on the internet, and more, go here. (The matching game is particularly addictive).

Submitted by Anonymous on Tue, 02/08/2011 - 2:39pm

Ever wonder what those new fangled technological tools are used for...like the iPad, iPod, electronic books and e-notebooks? Did you receive one as a gift and haven't used it because you aren't sure how? You may bring your personal electronic item or just come to learn how to use them and explore the differences between them on Monday, Feb. 21 at 6:30 p.m. Come to have a "hands on" experience. We will have iPods, iPads, eKindle, eNook, and e-notebooks here. Light refreshments will be served. Call us at 281-426-3521 if you have any questions.
