March is National Nutrition Month. Come and check out the informative books we have on display.
The Book Challenge for March is to read a book about siblings. You may win a gift certificate from a local business.
Rod Benson, Harlem High graduate, will present the program “The Geology of Blaine County” March 21, 6:30 P.M. in the library meeting room.
Benson lives in Helena and teaches high school science in Hays. He is currently in his 42nd and final year of teaching. He has learned as much as he can about the geology of north central Montana, and he has hiked many miles, exploring and photographing our beautiful landscape. He will share many of these photos during his presentation as well as explaining how oceans, volcanic activity, and ice ages shaped the Blaine County area. Please join us!
The Book Club is currently reading “Ordinary Grace” by William Kent Krueger. We meet on Mondays at 4 P.M. for discussion.
During the month of March you may “Buy a Bag O’Books!” Fill a grocery sack full of used books from the Reading Room for only one dollar.
The library has many services to offer. Some of these include free notary services, scanning, faxing and photo copying, interlibrary loan, free wi-fi and many more.
This week we are featuring award winning children’s books. The Newbery Medal winner is “The Eyes & the Impossible” by Dave Eggers. Johannes is a free dog who every day runs through the urban park by the sea and reports everything he sees to the park’s three bison, Keepers of the Equilibrium. But when humans erect a mysterious building and an new kind of animal arrives in the park, Johannes must run faster and see better to liberate those he loves.
Winner of the Caldecott Medal is the picture book “Big” by Vashti Harrison. She was praised for being a big girl when she was young. She had a big laugh and a big heart and very big dreams. Then the word “big” became hurtful. Can she accept herself for the person she is?
Are you looking for a new suspense thriller? Why not try “The Only Survivors” by Megan Miranda, “After That Night” by Karin Slaughter, or “The Bad Weather Friend “ by Dean Koontz.
Other new titles include “Always Remember,” a Ravenswood novel by Mary Balogh, “The Friendship Club” by Robyn Carr, and “Tales of the Celestial Kingdom “ by Sue Lynn Tan.
