We were starting to think that perhaps we would never be able to say this... Spring is here! If you don't believe us, take a look at the beautiful blossoms here at the library. And while you're at it, perhaps check out a book or two for some outdoors reading?
As part of poetry month, we have invited members of our community to write their own Guessing Haiku - a haiku that challenges the reader to guess its subject.
You can read all of the excellent submissions we have received so far on the wall near the Teen Room. In the meantime, can you guess what these two patron-submitted haiku are about?
Were you able to guess the subject of either of those haiku? Perhaps you're even feeling inspired! If you would like to submit your own Guessing Haiku, head over to our blog post via the link below for more information. We would love to see and share what you create!
Did you know you can access Consumer Reports online with your library card? Our membership provides you access to unbiased ratings and reviews for products and services, as well as trusted advice and in-depth reporting. You can also browse an archive for the Consumer Reports magazine.
Participate in a spring Litter Cleanup Action Day! Volunteers are needed to pick up trash along roadways, parks, and riverbanks all across town. Check-in at Field Park or at Bloedel Park anytime between 9:00 a.m. and noon for instructions and a trash bag.
Please wear bright clothes and appropriate shoes and work gloves. Come for an hour or more. Kids are welcome! Please let your high schoolers know that if they participate, they can get their Community Service papers for student volunteers signed.
