CONNEAUTVILLE Storytime is off to a terrific start! Miss Julie read stories and had activities pertaining to moles last week. After the summer break it was good to see the children and adults again.

Beginning in October we will once again have our Lego Club. We meet the second Saturday of the month at 10:00 a.m. Bring your friends and come and create! Along with the Legos, we also have Magna-tiles, blocks, and Keva Planks.

Miss Kortney has made good progress marking the juvenile books with the AR level. We hope that by doing this kids will have an easier time finding a book at the appropriate reading level. Miss Kortney has been an added blessing to the library.
