Its July again, where does the time fly? This month brings long lazy days and probably some heat and humidity so it's a great time to stock up on books and DVD's , some for the beach and some to watch in the AC! Programming is crazy busy here so check out our website to see what programs are available for both children and teens. Adults can get in on the fun by keeping track of their summer reads and fill out a slip and enter into a weekly raffle. Its a great time to think about this year's theme, "Building a Better World".

Digital Downloads Make Your Vacation Easier!
Going on vacation? Why not check out some digital content on your device for the week. Either of our digital eBook providers allow for multiple uses at one time so you could be greedy for just two or three weeks and stock up on content....and only have the one device...or maybe two, instead of a whole pile of heavy books. Overdrive allows 5 books at one time and Axis360 allows 3. We also have an option to view electronic versions of some of our most popular magazines. Check out our digital options on our website.
