BREAKING NEWS @ 11!

It's not often you hear about the amazing things people do to better their community. Sure, you hear ALL about the negativity happening in the world via the 11 o'clock news, but what about all the selfless, positive acts the people in our community perform that you never find out about?

One such exemplary example is Bethel resident & Girl Scout Candy Carver. You can read all about Candy and her efforts to help struggling readers learn AND enjoy reading on our Teen Net page - clermontlibrary.org/teennet/teenspeak.html

Hopefully Candy's story will inspire you to reach out to your community, or at the very least, counteract the latest "news" you watch on tv tonight...

 Don't say we didn't warn you -- summer is right around the corner. No reason for you to claim you didn't know Summer Reading was coming. The first part of the name gives it away. It's not Winter Reading or Autumn Reading; it's SUMMER Reading... And it's comimg! June 6 - August 1, 2009. Look for signups at your local branch to start sometime in early June. I know, I know, you want to sign up right now, but hold your horses! We're not quite ready yet. Still putting on the finishing touches to make this one of the best summer reading programs yet!
