Let your heart flip into the library this week

Starting Monday, the library will be having our heart promotion similar to ones we have done in years past. Patrons will be asked to share their favorite author.  Check out the hearts on display as you walk into the adult and teen area and what patrons have written. In years past, we have asked for favorite books, books turned into movies, and what you love most about the library.

We have a slew of heart-y events planned this week. On Monday, February 10 at 6:30 p.m. it’s dinner and a date, a modified version of our Recipe Swap. Bring a copy of a recipe to win over someone’s heart. When our Adult Services Coordinator pitched the idea, he said “recipes to win over his heart”. Fellas, you have to win ours too.

In the children’s department also on Monday between 2 p.m. and 3 p.m. the kids will make Valentine’s Day cards. So if you haven’t made your cards yet kids, stop on by the library.

On Tuesday, February 11 at 6:30 p.m. it’s Blind Date with a Book.  Library staff will match you up with a book or you can blind browse the books that have been pulled from the shelves.  Library and Lunch will be meeting earlier in the day at noon to discuss this month’s pick “The Book Thief” by Markus Zusak. If you haven’t read the book, you can still join in on the conversation! Gals, I finished it mid-week.

On Wednesday, February 12 at 4 p.m., there will be a Cupid is Stupid Teen Pizza Party. Come and hang out at the library for an hour.

Movie and a Date will be held on Thursday, February 13 at 6 p.m.  Bring your favorite person or bring yourself for a 1984 action adventure romantic comedy starring Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner.

On Friday we’ll hold a drawing for stuffed animals. Through the week make sure to stop by the circulation desk and fill out a slip at the same time you’re filling out a heart to enter the drawing.

Maryellen Anderson, a local author has postponed her book signing from this weekend to next. She’ll be at the library on Saturday, February 15 from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. to promote her book “The Bailey News”.

For the latest library programming take a peek at the library website or grab a newsletter from the circulation desk. Stay tuned and connected through our social media pages. If you have any questions or suggestions about books or programs don't hesitate to ask. See you at the library this week!
