Out From "Between the Covers" 

 

  Summer is here, so now is the time to get out from "Between the Covers" and head down to the Library to participate in our Summer Reading Program. This program is open to adults, teens, & children. There is something for everyone to enjoy. So come to the Library, fill out your passport, choose your mode of transportation and read your way around the world!  Oh, and if you should go on a trip, drop us a postcard. We'd love to hear from you.

Our regular book review column, "Between the Covers", will return in our July newsletter.
