Summer Programming my dear friends is here and in FULL BLAST!!

Here are our Calendars for the Summer, please look them over and plan on attending any of our programs that are appropriate for your children or for YOU!!

And, YES, we have adult programming in place! Check out The Great Book Escape below! Take your book reads on your journeys this summer, take a picture with your book with your vacation in the background and share it on Facebook and Twitter! The book that goes the farthest WINS a prize at the end of the summer! :)))

Teen Advisory Board is not a Circus, but it IS Full of Talent

You heard right, Teen Advisory Board is not a group of performers pretending to awe you with their awesomness. This group of students want to make a difference, in their communities, homes and in their own lives.

And I know they will.

These teens love encouragement, (which teen doesn't?) need counsel, but sometimes don't know how to ask (who can relate to that?? As a former teen, me!!) and want to be heard

 (point said...teens need to know someone is listening). 

But, not only that, they are brimming full of ideas. I just have to ask and I get a room full of teens bursting at the seams to tell me their take and 

how to make it happen.

And I love every minute of it.

If you are a teen and have time after school to spare or are a parent or aunt, uncle, grandmother/grandfather, neighbor, 1st cousin or whatever relation to a TEEN, please give them the wonderful advice of sitting in on a 

Teen Advisory Board meeting.

It is every 1st and 3rd Thursday of the month at 2:30 pm at the Mulberry Public Library, we will be here and teens will be too with their lights blinking on and off with questions, ideas, comments, and plain teen talk. Join us. You will love it.

There is only one thing to bring to the meeting!

Your light.

Take a look at what's coming up and stay tuned for more information as we get closer to June!

Our New Library!

That's right, we have finally moved to our new location and we are up and running.

The first couple of weeks were hard, but there's so much more to offer now that we are in our new location.

Our computers are operating with Windows 8 and are touch screen.

We have two silent tutor rooms available for all patrons looking for an area of quiet study.

Our teen room is coming along nicely and houses a safe place for teens to hang out.

The kid's room is nothing but fun! With computers with games, reading chairs and more!

The conference room is available to be rented for meetings, movies, and more!

Our program schedule is picking up and we're getting ready for the 2015 Summer Reading Program. Check the website and Facebook for more information about upcoming programs!

Wear What you Love!

You know that saying, "You wear what you love. Love what you wear" right? Well, around here at the Mulberry Library, we love our Library! We are wearing t-shirts every Friday announcing our great adoration of this great public service entity. And they are great-looking shirts, too!

And we would love it if you wore one!! We have them in two colors, dark grey and blue and they are at a fabulous price of $10 per shirt, $12 for XXL.

These shirts will benefit the library in a multitude of ways:
1. They market our library!
2. They help fund our new library!
3. They market our library!
4. Have I mentioned that they market our library? :)

One way we receive funding from the state is by the number of people who visit our library. So, the more people who know about our library and can use our services, the more funding we can receive which leads to better and more library programs.

Please come by the library to purchase a t-shirt today. If you love our library, it is a wonderful way to show your support. And you will love what you are wearing, to boot!

Assistant Director
