This week at the library; Last week of summer reading!

Programs and events

• Themed week in the Storyroom: Paper crafts
• LOTG outreach and daycare storytime (3 sessions)
• New teacher orientation
• Summer reading ends!

Notes

• It's really, truly over! This is the last week of summer reading, last week to pick up prizes and tickets, last week to turn in raffle tickets, last week of activities in the Storyroom. Next week construction on the new youth services desk will begin, as will the county fair, then school starts after Labor Day, then programs resume September 11th with outreach resuming in October.
• Projects this week - collection development, specifically some much-belated weeding projects, presentations for the new teacher orientation, and teachers are starting to ask for back-to-school collections (yes, I have AWESOME teachers who ask AHEAD OF TIME!!)
• I wasn't sure what traffic would look like this week - the local pool was originally supposed to close on the 20th but was extended to the following weekend and the County Fair officially starts on Wednesday. We're also at the peak of a heat cone or something and OUR A/C DIED ON WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. We ended up closing on Thursday and reopening Friday, not fully cooled off until Friday afternoon. It was... a thing.
