I hope you all come to the Library this Saturday during Oktoberfest! We are setting up the Friends of the Library book sale inside due to the potential rain, but the doors will be open from 9am to 3pm. The Friends will be selling used books, I will be selling knife raffle tickets, and print copies of the fall online auction will be available.

More information on all of this and more is below. Happy reading! ~Justin

Miss Debbie has launched a new initiative to get parents and children reading together! Participants get free books, prizes, and gift cards for working their way through the program. It is an excellent opportunity for families to establish a culture of reading early and start building their children's home libraries.

Mr. Saviano's knife raffle has raised $3,680 so far for our building fund! Come visit us at Oktoberfest to take a closer look, ask questions, learn about the process, and buy your tickets! Ticket sales will also run throughout the Friends auction. If every registered Library patron bought one, we could raise over $30,000!

The current book on the SNETT is The Duck Never Blinks by Alex Latimer. Will the Duck blink? Probably not.

Maybe, though. I can't say for sure.

But it could, right? If it wanted to. Who knows?
