Its New at the Library

The Library is accepting donations of books and items for the Annual Book Sale that will be held during Funfest. The Sale will start Thursday Sept 10th and continue through the month of September. At a recent Friends of the Library meeting, it was agreed to host host a Rummage Sale in October. So if you have some items that you wish to donate for the sale, bring them to the library starting Oct 20th. I have been seeing Ancestor.com advertised on television recently. Did you know that you can get it free at your local library. Using the public computers at the Library, you can go online and use the full version of Ancestor.com. If you are interested in your family history, stop in at your local Library and give it a try. Another database added recently is an Automotive Repair database. We do have many Chilton's Repair books but not all. This you can do using your home computer. Go to Infosoup and on the home page click on ARRC and your on your way. What is great about this database is that you can use it even when the library is closed! Some new items at the library are Robin Cooks Intervention, Elin Hilderbrand Castaway, J.A. Jance Fire & Ice, Sandra Brown Smash Cut, Pat Conroy South of Broad, Faye Kellerman Blindman's Bluff, and Guillermo Del Toro's new book The Strain. Also, for the new hobby farmers out there or people thinking about raising a few chickens or small livestock, the library has purchased several new books on hobby farming, poultry (as many of you heard I have purchased and am raising some chickens, but that is another story) and small backyard livestock. Stop in at the Library. You never know what you will find!
