LOOKING FOR SUMMER READING? CHECK OUT OUR BOOK DISPLAYS!!

As you walk upstairs in the library, you will see two displays on the landing.  When you are upstairs, you will see three tables of displays.  Librarians change these displays regularly to introduce you to a variety of fiction or nonfiction.  Right now, our five displays are:

1.  Vacationing or Staycationing with kids.  Are you looking for crafts, camp games, travel books, fun activities to do with kids?  Look on the first display on the landing.  You will find lots of ideas for kids of all ages.

2.  New Nonfiction in 2014.  The library purchases many nonfiction books each year, ranging from how to books, biographies, cookbooks, history, finance, religion, parenting, crafts,  travel, etc.  Take a look and find something new.

3.  Book to Read in the Dark with a Flashlight.  The flashlight is not because you are a kid and you mother told you to turn out the light and go to sleep.  The flashlight is because these stories are scary!
Written by traditional authors you may have read before and new authors, these books will keep you up at night.

4.  Coming of Age Stories.  These fiction titles contain some classic titles and many new books that you may not have read before.  Some take place in areas of the U.S. and some are set in other countries.  These stories are great for a good summer read.

5.  Graduation is not the End, it is the Beginning.  You or someone in your family has graduated.
What's next?   Higher education, or a job?  Graduates and their parents are all affected by this milestone.  Look at this display for some ideas and guidance.

Do you like a particular author and wish you could find similar authors?  Do you like a particular genre of fiction, or do you like novels set in a particular place.  Try Novelist, the readers advisory database that you can access in the library or at home.  You can click on Novelist when you are at the library catalog page.  Database are listed on the right had side of the page.  You can find book suggestions for adults and children.  Also, if you are in the library or contact us,  we are always happy
to suggest books.
