Epping Library News - June 16th 2008
June 17, 2008
The staff of the Harvey Mitchell Memorial Library would like to express its gratitude to all the library friends and families who stopped by during Amanda’s last day to wish her well. After nearly 4 years of service, director Amanda Reynolds-Cooper has taken the director’s position at the Lane Library in Hampton. Epping’s library folk grew to love “Miss Amanda” and wish her the best as she learns the ropes at her new library. While the Board of Trustees runs its director search, the evening assistant, Laurie Dudley, will assume the role of Interim Director, and various staff members will fill in at the circulation desk.
Upcoming Programs:
Dessert and a Movie – a free night for adults! Thursday, June 26th @ 7:45. Licensing rules prohibit advertising of the title, but this month’s movie is based on a book by Philippa Gregory and is set in 16th century England during the reign of King Henry VIII. Bring a dessert to share and perhaps a comfortable beach chair for enjoying the movie on the big screen.
Toy Play Day, Saturday, June 28th from 11:00 to 1:00. Now that it’s summer, think about the BEACH! Bring your favorite sand and water toys to play with and share with other library families. Hopefully the weather will allow outside activities, but even if it rains, there will be crafts, stories at noon with Miss Tracie and time for both playing and picnicking if you so choose.
Summer Reading Program begins next week: Children in preschool through 5th grade may register and pick up a reading log this week, so they can be ready for the games and crafts that begin Monday, June 30th . This drop-in program will run for 6 weeks Monday through Thursday 10 to 2 and Wednesday evening from 5 to 8. Beginning June 25th Preschool Storyhour will change to the summer schedule of 9:15 on Wednesdays and 9:15 and 2:30 on Thursdays.
The library will be closed on July 4th.
