May is "Get Caught Reading Month"! This is a nationwide campaign to remind people of all ages how much it is to read! Here at the Pinelands Branch, we have been on the lookout to catch people reading all month long. If we catch you reading, you might even get a little prize. Last week, we caught sisters Ashley & Lily reading in the children's room.
Splish, splash I was taking a bath... at the library! Children ages 3-4 had fun at our bathtime storytime today. We read stories about bathtubs, bubbles and a bear who wouldn't take a bath! We ended our storytime by dancing to some great bath songs with scarves and making music with rhythm sticks & egg shakers
Many high school and college students across the county are in the midst of final exams and projects. During this stressful time, students may be looking for a quiet place to work. Several of the BCLS locations contain quiet study rooms; which are great for studying, working on projects and group discussions. Encourage students to contact their local BCLS branch to gain access to this amenity...
