National Library Week

National Library Week (April 13-19) which is a time to celebrate the contributions of libraries, librarians and library workers to their schools and communities. National Library Week is not only a great time to see what’s new at your library, but also a time to stand up and speak out as a library advocate. During the week, we will be holding a food drive for the local food pantry. For each food item brought into the library, we will waive fifty cents in overdue library fines. This is an opportunity to clear up your fines and help the local Food Pantry. You may also drop off food items even if you don’t have fines!

 

Again this year, the Friends of the Library will provide Books For Babies kits to all babies born at the Reedsburg Area Medical Center during the week, to encourage reading, starting at birth.  The kits include a board book titled “Sign About Meal Time”, a sipper cup, and information about the library.
