Summer Reading Club Begins!

Its the first day of Summer Reading Club and I am already rarin' to go. I have a list of books that I plan on reading during the summer and we will see how many I actually get through. Last year I read 25 books and the year before 40. With that amount of books you know I'm not reading War and Peace, but I promise you that I enjoy every one of them.

I also wanted to let everyone know about the fabulous prizes you could win if you join the summer reading club. First you get a fridge magnet for the many, many receipts you get from the library telling you when your items are due. And second, you get an entry into our drawing which has many great prizes to choose from, some which were donated from local businesses (and a couple from library staff!) and others procured through the generous donations of the Friends of the Arlington Public Library. So check out the prize packs listed below!
