Our Summer Reading Program is almost over (this Friday August 15 at 8pm)!  Be sure to finish reading your eight hours (or more) and get those reading records in so you can participate in the graduation on Wednesday August 20 at 6:30pm.

On Friday August 22 at 6:30pm we will be having another Gaming Club.  Bring your handheld gaming system and join other enthusiasts as you share games and fun!  You can only bring 3 games and EVERYTHING must be marked with your name.

Before you know it, school will begin again.  Join us on Wednesday August 27 at 6:30pm as we have a Back to School Bash at the library.  Hear some stories, make a craft and play some games.  A party you won't want to miss before school begins!

Our theme for September and October is Thrills and Chills.  Join me next week for a sneak preview of the coming events!

A bunch of our literacy bags are ready for checkout!  What is a literacy bag?  It’s a cloth bag for children and inside awaits some fun things!  There is a book, a cassette or CD with the story on it, an activity or prop pertaining to the book, and a list of fun activities to do at home about that theme.  So please, stop in and look at them in the children’s room. 

We are in dire need of new programming room chairs.  We are starting a collection to purchase them.  If you would like to contribute please send, or stop in and drop off a monetary donation.  Checks can be made to the Morrisville Public Library.  Thank you for your contribution!

Lots of new books are here!  Some are: Smoke Screen by Sandra Brown, Mercedes Coffin by Faye Kellerman, Being Elizabeth by Barbara Taylor Bradford, Rough Justice by Jack Higgins, Lie Down with the Devil by Linda Barnes, The 19th Wife by David, Ebershoff, Bible Salesman by Clyde Edgerton, and Towelhead by Alicia Erain.

Grab some great books to read over the summer!  We are open Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday 12pm to 8pm, Tuesday 10am to 6pm and Saturday 10am to 4pm.
