Library Notes

by Henry A. Malley Memorial Library Librarian Barb Mitchell

We had some fun in January with a new book challenge- Read a book with a red cover. This month the challenge is to read a book with a one-word title. This reading challenge is open to all ages, so come on in, find a book with a one-word title, snuggle down on these cold evenings, and put your name and the name of the book on a slip of paper and you could have a chance to win a gift card from a local business.

If you have had a baby in the last few months or year, and are a Powder River County resident, don’t forget to sign them up for free books from Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library!
