Westerlo Library Notes for Wednesday, August 5, 2020
We now have a limited number of appointments available to come inside and browse. Please check our website https://www.westerlolibrary.org/ or call 518-797-3415 during our regular hours for an appointment or porch pick-up.
Anyone entering the library is expected to wear a mask, follow six-feet social distancing, and wash their hands before browsing. Please use the outdoor book-drop for all returns. All items on the shelf have been quarantined for 96 hours for your safety.
If you have materials on hold, we will call you to make an appointment for porch pick-up or to come inside to pick up your materials. At this time, all visits to the library are by appointment.
If you have any questions on how to safely get library materials, please give us a call at the library and one of our staff members will be happy to help you out.
Summer Reading
The Summer Reading Program is going strong! Families are taking the paper forms to either fill in titles or times that their children are reading. We are very happy to see that you are continuing to read over the summer. Keep on Imagining Your Story this summer!
Many of you have stopped by to pick up Take-and-Make kits to do at home. All of our online story times and Take and Make kits videos can be viewed on our Facebook page. Even though we can’t be together, we want to make sure we are offering fun activities for you to enjoy throughout the summer! So stop by and pick up your kits today!
Virtual Book Club
You are cordially invited to our first virtual book club on Tuesday, Aug. 25. at 10 a.m. Our first book will be “Elizabeth is Missing” by Emma Healey. I have just finished this book and it was a mystery of twists and turns as the main character, who suffers from Alzheimer’s, tries to keep the clues straight.
It was an interesting insight into the mind of a loved one who has Alzheimer’s as well. If you are interested in joining us please send an email toinfo@westerlolibrary.org to get the online invitation and information to our Book Club. You can find the book in multi formats on OverDrive or Hoopla. We hope that you will join us at our first virtual Book Club! Trying something new, safely, is what this is all about!
