Springboro Library happenings

SPRINGBORO - “SPL” has the holiday spirit and the perfect book to match yours!! Come check out one of our many new Holiday books in fiction or non-fiction.

Our latest titles include the new John Grisham novel, the new Lee Child novel and of course the new Mary Higgins Clark mystery. And if it’s a good cook book you’re looking for, we have books specifically for cookies or for cupcakes or even for casseroles.

Check out one of our many different magazines for decorating or for recipes. We have just what you need to get ideas for a fun, holiday bash.

We would like to thank all those who participated in our latest canvas painting workshop! The workshop was at full capacity. For those who could not get a seat at this one, we will plan another.

Congratulations to our Board member, Mike Furdiga, who received the 2018 “Library Champion” award from the Northwest chapter of the Pennsylvania Library Association. Mike absolutely earned and deserved this award for all that he does here. He is someone who has made a difference.

Remember to come in and sign up for one of our craft workshops. We do crafts the 1st and 3rd Thursday of every month. Our next one will be on December 20th. This workshop is free and will feature more holiday decor!

You can borrow movies, music CDs, play aways or books on CD. We have a variety of materials for the whole family. Patrons are welcome to come in and read or use the internet in a quiet, relaxing atmosphere. Get your holiday entertainment early. We will be closed from December 23rd until the 26th.

Our children’s corner features books, games, toys and coloring supplies. Join us for pre-school story hour on Saturday mornings at 10am followed by kids activities at 11am. “Miss Ginger” will have plenty of holiday crafts for the kids. Thanks to all the kids who made ice cycles for the big tree in our front window. We have received many compliments.

CONNEAUTVILLE - Welcome December! We have a lot of activities planned for the month.

On Thursday, December 27, we are hosting a Family Game Night at 4:30. This is a great way to enjoy a night out with the family while everyone is on Christmas break. If you are interested in any of the programs mentioned, please call the library at 587-2142 to sign up.

The Conneautville “Pay It Forward” contest is underway. Now is the time to check out the displays and vote for your favorite charity. Votes are $1.00 each and will be accepted Monday – Friday at the Conneautville Borough Office and at Stone Memorial Library. Get out and vote!

We are pleased that the library is becoming more of a community connection. More patrons are realizing that the library is not just about books. As we continue to offer a variety of programs and services we hope to have a positive impact on our community.

If you need something to get into the holiday spirit stop in to the library and check out our books, DVD’s, and music. We have an extensive variety to choose from.

Story time continues on Tuesday mornings at 10:00 if you would like to join us.

With the colder weather now would be a good time to come in and see the new books we have added to our collection. There are several new Christmas selections for you to enjoy with a cup of hot chocolate or tea and get you in the holiday spirit.
