Sponsored by the Friends:
Starship Adventure at Your Library began Tuesday, June 23 with an ice cream social.
Lots of exciting programs are planned for the summer. Thank you to Comcast and the Friends for supporting the reading program!
As of July 1, 2009, the library schedule will be reduced by five hours. The library will be closed Monday nights, and Saturdays the library will close at 3PM, when Saturday hours resume in in September. This change is a result of a budget cut, approved at the June 8 Town Meeting. For a complete new schedule, please visit: Hours and Directions.
Thank you to Braga's Landscaping, of North Reading, for "adopting" the library grounds. We are so pleased that Braga's will keep the flowerbeds and shrubs maintained. This is really a special contribution to the library and to the town of North Reading.
Don't forget to take a look at the island the Friends have adopted on the corner of Haverhill and Chestnut Streets. Flowers are in bloom!
Soap Bubble artist, Keith Michael Johnson's, "The Secret World of Bubbles," was a big hit with children and parents at the Friends Annual Meeting on June 1.
Volunteers from Comcast read children stories, several times this years, as part of the library's ongoing partnership, Comcast Reading Connection. We are grateful for their participation and for Comcast's ongoing support of library programs for children.
In association with Amazon!
