Westerlo Library Notes for Thursday, March 15, 2018
Are you beginning a job search?
Cypress Résumé is an online résumé and cover-letter builder that creates basic, but professional looking résumés in three easy steps. Provided by the Upper Hudson Library System’s “Get a Job!” grant, and funded by the New York State Library’s Adult Literacy Library Services Program, this free service is accessible with your library card.
Click on “Search Online Databases” from the Westerlo Library’s website or go to uhls.org and click on the Cypress Résumé link.
Read to Lefty
Lefty the Dog will be back next Friday, March 23, from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. Contact the library to register your child for a 15-minute reading session, or just drop in to “Check it out!” (Librarians love saying, “Check it out.”)
Lefty is a registered therapy dog. Our thanks to Eric Markson for volunteering his time and sharing Lefty with us.
Lego Club
Drop in on Monday afternoons from 3:30 to 4:30 p.m. to play and create with Lego. We supply the blocks; you bring the imagination. Miss Lee is also available for homework help.
Story time
Join Miss Lee Wednesday mornings from 11 a.m. to noon for stories, songs, and movement activities designed for infants to children up to five years old.
In addition to developing pre-reading skills, singing, moving to music, and playing instruments all help foster a sense of rhythm and timing that are essential elements in developing the part of a child’s brain that shapes math skills.
Story times are also a great opportunity to meet other parents of small children in Westerlo.
Technology Walk-In Wednesdays
Do you have a new smartphone or tablet, but don’t know how to download digital materials? Need to brush up on your computer skills — or obtain basic skills?
See Amy on Wednesdays between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. for free, personalized, one-on-one instruction.
