Read Across America

Blue Ridge participated in Read Across America day on March 2nd. We all took turns reading a page from Cat in the Hat and then we made our own hats.

The pajama party to celebrate our 9th anniversary was a success. The community had fun playing video games, making crafts, and eating. Thanks go to our volunteers for all of their help: Blue Ridge Lions Club, Marlana Mitchell, Shammi Gill, and Tomika Price. Check out the pictures below.

Kudos to the Stimley-Blue Ridge Staff for all their hard work to pull off a great party!!

S.A.V.E. Volunteers

This summer we had 3 volunteers that completed the requirements for the S.A.V.E. program. Congratulations goes to Destiny, Yasmin, and Dontrae for providing us with at least 50 volunteer hours each this summer. I will be having the recognition party for them on August 21st at 4:00 pm.

Guidelines for the Summer Reading Program

Children are designated as ages 0-12
--At registration, each child receives a specially designed fan, clown nose, or tattoo just for signing up while supplies last.

--At 10 books read or 10 hours read, each child receives a pencil case which includes a few items like a pencil, erasor, ruler, and pencil sharpener while supplies last. (Should a child prefer a music download, then please give it to them. No need to ask questions however, there is a limited number and these are meant for teens, ages 13-18 so please encourage the school supplies kit for ages 0-12.)

--At 10 books read or 10 hours read, each child receives a ticket to the Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey circus good for one child admission (ages 12 and under only). There is no ticket for the parent accompanying the child. These would have to be purchased. Tickets available while supplies last and HPL will receive a total of 20,000 tickets.

--At 10 books read or 10 hours read, each child receives a sticker with SRP graphics that says "Hooked on Books!"

--At 10 books read or 10 hours read, each child and teen will be entered into a drawing for a $50 gift card from Barnes & Noble. One gift card per library and all winners selected randomly via Summer Reader. Sandy Farmer will oversee the random drawings. External Affairs will mail out the gift card to winners.

Marketing the Juvenile Collection

I have created more displays in the Children's area. In order to continue marketing our collection, I have created displays that will hopefully appeal to our patrons. There are 4 new displays: "Hot Off The Press" (new books), "Whodunit?" (juvenile mysteries), "Just The Facts" (non-fiction), and Coretta Scott King Award Books. Take a look when you get the chance and feel free to offer suggestions for books that should be there.

Thanks,
Tomisha

Texas Bluebonnet Award Books

I have moved the Texas Bluebonnet Award books to the shelves that were vacated by the nonfiction VHS tapes. This allows us to display these books more prominently in the juvenile area. I have also included the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners for 2007-2008 on the display. Further, for your information the list of nominees for 2008-2009 are there if you ever need to know if a book is a current Bluebonnet Book. Let me know if you have any questions.
