Keep bringing in those Winter Reading Challenge Bingo sheets! And remember, looking up a book on our catalog computer counts as one of the squares you can check off. Not sure how to do that? Just ask! We’d be happy to walk you through the process! There's still time to sign up, our Winter Reading Challenge goes until March 12th. Stop by the desk upstairs to sign up and grab your bingo card.

It’s been said that using sign language with babies can: - reduce frustration (for babies and their caregivers) - increase vocabulary and comprehension (hello, early literacy skills!) - strengthen bonding and social skills … and much more! Have you tried baby sign language with your little ones? We’d love to hear about your experience! Check out more books like this one, "My First Book of Baby Signs" by Lane Rebelo, in our Parent Resource Section. https://minerva.maine.edu/record=b4004170~S21

Did you know the library has snowshoes you can borrow from our Recreation Collection? We think outdoor fun should be accessible to everyone, no matter your budget. Grab one of these cards upstairs to check them out! Available in a variety of sizes.
