Did You Know…

The flowers planted around the library and in the pot next to the main door were purchased through funds from the David Williams Cass County Gardener’s Grant?  Thanks to Dottie Krogh, Karen Hirsch, and the kids who helped plant them!  They look great!

Behind My Desk…

The summer is flying by but there are still plenty of Summer Reading events to come!  One of the biggest this month is the return of the Dome Theater on July 17, from 2:00-7:40.  If you’ve been to the library in the past month, you’ve seen all the signs!  The program line-up is as follows:
          Dinosaur Prophecy: 2:00-2:30 & 2:30-3:00  
          Cosmic Collision: 3:00-3:30
          Passport to the Universe: 3:30-4:00
          Microcosm: 4:00-4:30
          Night of the Titanic: 4:30-5:00 & 5:45-6:15
          Pink Floyd Dark Side of the Moon: 6:15-7:00
          Sonic Vision: 7:00-7:40
We will not be taking signups this year.  It is on a first come, first serve basis.  Thank you to the Friends of the Library for sponsoring this event.

There is also a Gaming Night for 6th-8th graders from 7:30-9:00 that evening.  In addition to games, two Dome Theater programs have been reserved just for them.
          Pink Floyd, the Wall: 7:40-8:30
          Entranced: 8:30-9:00

Though it is a little ways out, I also wanted to mention an upcoming program.  On August 6 at 2:30, Leighton Christiansen, the Iowa DOT librarian, will be presenting a program entitled, “A Journey in Transportation: The Iowa Department of Transportation Centennial and Iowa Transportation Highlights.”  I’ve heard wonderful reviews from other libraries that have already had the program so please mark your calendars for this event! 

Enjoy these warm, summer days and…Keep Thinking Libraries!
