Summer Reading


Summer is here again, and in the library thoughts turn to summer reading. As I write this the Circulation Manager is envisioning hordes of youth invade the library like a plague of locusts reaping all available materials off the shelves.

Mythconceptions...

So, I get this email from the director of the library where I work, and it's a list of "misperceptions" about libraries. The list is comical, but gives great insight into modern libraries. My personal favorite is number 6.

Our friends...

The Avon Grove Library is fortunate to have a group of concerned citizens supporting the library's efforts. The Friends of the Avon Grove Library raises funds so the library can continue its mission in the community. Below is their flyer for a bus trip to Washington, D.C., to see the Cherry Blossoms in bloom.
