Flint Memorial Library

							May is one of the most beautiful  months in New 
							England. It's a busy month with holidays, parades,  
							graduations, dance recitals and more. Visit the 
							"Photography" display on  the first floor for 
							ideas on capturing these special days. If you can 
							find 

 any free time, think about checking out one of our "Walking" books. You'll
							
 find ideas for walks or hikes throughout New England.

 The third floor fiction display is devoted to "Mother's Day Fiction." 

 Mothers are also celebrated in our DVD display - "Mothers in Movies." If
							
 you have a favorite book or movie with a "memorable" mother, share the 
							title 

 with us and we'll try to add it to the display.

							To commemorate Memorial Day there are two displays 
							on the first floor. You 

							will be able to find fiction, biographies of 
							military men and women, and 

							other works of non-fiction. We'd like to extend a 
							special thank you to all 

							North Reading residents who have served in any 
							branch of the military.

							National Dance Week was April 25 thru May 4 but 
							we'll leave up our dancing 

							display for the whole month. You'll find DVDs and 
							books about dance and 

							dancers.

							Many North Reading readers have an interest in 
							reading about crime. This 

							month we offer a display on "Famous Trials."

DVD REQUESTS

Beginning January 22, 2007 most brand new feature films and television shows on DVD
will no longer be sent to the Flint Memorial Library from other MVLC libraries. Likewise
the Flint Memorial Library will no longer be shipping its new feature films and television
show to other MVLC libraries. The titles will become available after six months from the
date on which they were added. You will be able to place holds and pick up the titles
here. You will also be able to places holds and pick up the titles at the owning library.

This change is part of an effort to increase efficiency in the Interlibrary loan delivery
service.
