The Shellbrook Public Library will be hosting Dave and Leslee Whalley who will be presenting on China. The Wapiti Regional Library system has rolled out a new website. Story Time has begun and Letter Sounds are echoing in the Library.
The Library invites you to come join us on Thursday, October 25 at 7:00 pm when Dave and Leslee Whalley bring China to Saskatchewan. Dave will present the “Differences and Similarities between Christianity and Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism” and Leslee will be our tour guide on the exciting culture, people, and sights of Hong Kong. Refreshments will be served.
On October 9 the Wapiti Regional Library rolled out its cool new website at www.wapitilibrary.ca, so change you bookmarks! If you haven’t visited the website before, take the opportunity to do so and check out what it offers. From access to the online catalogue and ebooks, it also has all sorts of databases from world newspapers to Auto Repair manuals to TumbleBook. TumbleBook, one of the newest databases, is collection of animated talking children's books that is perfect for children learning to read and to draw children further into reading. All you need is your library card and PIN number.
Children’s Story Time started October 5 and is held on Fridays at 10:30 am. We welcome all comers, old and new and are sure you will have fun listening to good stories and making fun crafts. This year’s theme is Letter Sounds with each week covering two letter sounds. By the end of October, children will have 7 consonants and 1 vowel to read their first words. If you are interested in volunteering your time to read or do crafts, please contact Alanna at 747-3419.
The Library continues to offers free computer and Internet access to the public even with the cancellation of the Community Access Program (CAP) in March 2012. Would you like to bring back funding and keep public computer access for everyone? Drop on by the Library to sign a postcard to the Prime Minister.
