A "digital book" can't be infused with smells, can't press flowers in between its pages.  It can't contain spilt tears or coffee stains.  No, only a REAL book can do those things.

Cassidy's Library Staff Pick:

   Before I Die    

 

"Before I die I want to . . . " This is the sentence artist Candy Chang asked her New Orleans neighbors to complete on the side of an abandoned house using chalkboard paint, stencils, and colored chalk. Within one day, the wall was crammed with humorous, inspiring, and heartbreaking anonymous answers. Before I Die documents 425 of these walls in 60 countries in this large-scale form of inter-connected art therapy. What would you write?

Insider Librarian Tips . . . from Pat:
helpful tips

 

Do you like to listen to books while you multitask but want easy and simple? PlayAway books are audio books that do not need a cd player; just plug in head phones and go, with newer versions even easier to use.  The Delafield Public Library has LOTS of PlayAway titles to choose from.  Please ask about PlayAways.
