Greetings Friends!
In Libraryland, May is often the calm before the storm. We're finalizing our plans for summer reading, we're gearing up for the warm weather, and of course, we're making sure to stock up on all the new beach reads getting published over the next few months. Is there an author or book you're particularly excited about? Let us know! We do our best to choose books that you'll enjoy, but hearing what you like helps us make good decisions.
May also marks our final program in our climate series. On May 11, Gerry Runte will join us to explain exactly what the York Climate Action plan is, what it means for the Town, and what it means for you. If you've missed any programs in our climate series, please check out our program archive.
There is plenty of other May excitement in store--read below for a few of the upcoming events, and stay tuned in coming weeks for some BIG NEWS.
Yours,
York Public Library | |
