This Week At Your Library: 9/9/13
Summer Reading Results and Free Saturday Concert!
Dear Library Member, 

Summer is over, and I thought I would share with you our Summer Reading results. Our children's program had 496 participants who read 12,396 books! Our teen program had 114 participants, who wrote 1081 reviews.

Our adult program had 55 participants, who read 247 books. We'll be announcing the winners of the grand prize Kindle Fire and two second prize Kindle Paperwhites next week.

Congratulations to all who took part and kept their reading skills sharp this summer! Thanks also to our community sponsors: Giusseppe's Pizza, Central Jersey SepticJohnny-On-The-Spot, and the Friends of the Old Bridge Library. If any local  businesses are interested in sponsoring next year's Summer Reading Program, please contact me! We'll start planning later this Fall.

Also, if you're looking for a fun Saturday afternoon, come down to this month's Second Saturdays concert featuring Smithsonian Folkways recording artist Jim Albertson. His "Down Jersey" performance will feature songs and folktales of New Jersey.

We hope to see you soon!

Regards,
Darren Miguez, Library Director
