Speaking Volumes

Keeping you up-to-date on what's happening at your library. We invite you to join in the conversation!
MAY 12, 2010
With a little help from our Friends

Along with our usual activities, our Library space is filling up with other stuff this week.  This up coming weekend is a quarterly Friends of the Library Book Sale.  As book sales approach it always increases donations and book sale books are over flowing!  But also this weekend, the Library Board is hosting a tag sale.  So not only are the books piling up, but so is the stuff! 
 
I am reminded of when we used to have multi-family tag sales as a kid and the grown-ups would tsk that they were just trading stuff.  There is a pile of stuff in my office for which I am having hourly conversations with myself. (Su, you don’t need a hamster cage.  No.  No, no, no!)
 
Still, there is an air of excitement, as Saturday promises to be exciting.  We are expecting visits from the Cat in the Hat; we are offering chair massages, drawings and more.
 
It’s supposed to be a gorgeous weekend.  So come to Columbia town green – visit our Friends book sale, buy a snack at the Jim Lunt Bake sale and by all means give and something a new home.
 
While you’re in the neighborhood, stop in the Library and check out some of our new books!
 



Imperfect Birds  by Anne Lamott, a new novel about parenthood and family.
 



Apple Turnover Murder by Joanne Fluke another Hannah Swensen mystery with recipes
 



Horns by Joe Hill a scary new novel by an author for whose talent run in the family.
