Winter Reading

Usually about this time of year the great state of Ohio sends me a giant manual listing out details of their upcoming summer reading program.  While this is a thick and heavy package, the book is at least three inches thick, I've never found it a particularly useful  tool and have taken to using it mostly for a bookend or to add to our recycle bin. 

But when the monumental volume appeared this year, thoughts of next summer's programming was too far in the future to even comprehend but why wait.  Why not a simpler form of summer reading available....in the winter?! Eureka.

So look for our first ever Winter Reading program.  The program is being put together and will be availalbe exclusively online.  Read six books and submit a short book review on each one and you'll be able to print off a certificate for a prize bag that you can pick up here at the library's reference desk.  Your certificate will also be entered into a drawing for a special grand prize to be announced soon (think Vera Bradley and maybe something with a touch screen).

Winter months are the perfect time to warm up with a good book and hopefully add a little fun to your reading by checking out reviews and book suggestions by fellow readers.  There has to be some benefit in enduring another Ohio winter....
