What a fantastic response to the Summer Reading Program!  Last week I challenged parents and caregivers to bring the number of children registered for the program to 400.  Miss Kristi gave me the number signed up as of 3:00 p.m. today and I am proud to announce that we now have 405 children registered.  Miss Beth has over 60 teens and tweens signed on for her part of the summer reading program.

The next program we have scheduled is on June 20 at 3:00 p.m.  Miss Beth is going to show the teens and tweens how to make a magic eight balll.  At 7:00 p.m. Miss Kristi will have a program for the youngsters with Ben Jammin'.  Both programs will be held in the basement.

The Library Board meets on June 20 and this month the meeting will be held in the Heritage Room as the basement is being used for the above mentioned programs.  The Board meetings are open to the public.

Some great new books that are on the NEW SHELF of the non-fiction are:
The Gluten-free Kitchen by Sue Shepherd  100 recipes that range from soups and main dishes to desserts

Outlaw:  Waylon, Willie Kris, and the Renegades of Nashville by Michael Streissguth  The story of how Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson and Kris Kristophferson pioneered modern country music.

Anyone who had a Heart: My Life and Music by Burt Bacharach with Robert Greenfield   Burt Bacharach tells his story from his love of music and the fame it brought him to his private life where three marriages and the loss of a daughter were never seen in public 

Teach Yourself Visually Microsoft Office 2010 by Kate Shoup  A step by step guide that leads you through all the buttons and menus in the Office suite with chapters on Basic Office, Word, Excel, Power Point and Publisher among others.  You do each step in each program, not just read how to do it. 

Have a wonderful week and I will see you at the Library
