Hello everyone.
Let’s welcome the month of May. Do you remember when schools had May Day activities? I know that was a long time ago and dates me. However, when many of us were students, we looked forward with excitement, every year, to those special moments shared with friends and family. They seemed to almost kickoff summer and moved us more quickly to the last day of school.
Now, it might be that we have to find our own special moments in May. So, I am inviting you to make more time for reading and enjoying a good novel, poem, or collection of short stories. Also, Mother’s Day is almost here. Give a literary gift to the mother figure in your life. Perhaps there are those whom you admire for their dedication to mothering; don’t forget to add a book to their card of gratitude and encouragement. Cookbooks may come in handy at this time, as well as books on interior design, gardening and storage. Just checkout the library online and soon, in person.
That’s right, you will soon be able to come back into the library in-person. On Tuesday, May 4th and Saturday, May 8th, the Fulton County Library System will again offer patrons access to in-person services, although limited. That access will continue through May, on Tuesdays from 10:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. and on Saturdays, from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.

CELEBRATE CHILDREN'S BOOK WEEK |
|
When the 2020 census results are released, we will be deluged with news stories trying to interpret what the changing population of Atlanta and Fulton County will mean for our school zones, political representation, and business decisions. Key to understanding and interpreting this new information will be Data Literacy, a term that did not exist when many of us were in school.
