The Shellbrook Library is ready to “Go” with the TD Summer Reading Club and is hosting its Annual Summer Book Sale. Join Laura Lepard as she continues to offer health presentations.
The TD Bank Financial Group, the Toronto Public Library, and Library and Archives Canada are proud to support literacy in Canada by offering the TD Summer Reading Club to Canadian children. Every summer kids can improve their reading skills and reduce summer learning loss while having fun. Registration is open so get ready to go places with this year's Summer Reading Club, “Go!” theme with booklets, passports, and stickers with secret codes for the website www.tdsummerreadingclub.ca. The Library invites all club members to come down on Fridays at 10:30 a.m. to hand in their reading logs and participate in the activities.
The Library is in the midst of hosting its Annual Summer Book Sale and it will wrap up on July 5th. There is a variety of gently used adult fiction and non-fiction, young adult, juvenile and children’s books. There are also magazines, video tapes, and audio cassettes. The video selection is very large this year as the Library is phasing out tapes and cassettes and the adult VHS collection has been completely withdrawn and is ready to go. The price is totally reasonable—a good will donation to the Library. The Library is also accepting donations for the sale.
On Tuesday, July 9th at 7:00 pm Laura Lepard will share materials from Doctor John McDougal and Mary McDougal on “Diet vs. Drugs”. Visit their website www.drmcdougall.com to learn more and sign up for their free newsletter. Lepard will share her story and family’s experience with a whole-plant based diet and serve up weightless refreshments.
Free computer and Internet access is offered by the Library to the public even with the cancellation of the Community Access Program (CAP) in March 2012. Also available are the many databases like world newspapers with Library PressDisplay (such as the P. A. Daily Herald and Saskatoon StarPhoenix), Consumer Reports online, and Ancestry Library Edition for getting started on discovering your family’s history. All you need to access the material is your library card and a PIN which can be easily set up during your next library visit.
