2017 SRP - info

My record keeping leaves a little ( a lot ) to be desired. I know this. I acknowledge this. So...
I know I will want a record of what we have done this year for Summer Reading Program at the library.
Madison Public Library Summer Reading Program sponsored by Frontier Bank, member FDIC


Wednesdays 2-3 pm Summer Reading Program meetings
Spanning 8 wks including Kick-off and Prize drawing.(wrap-up) Kick off being the first Wednesday after last day of school for public elementary.
One major change in 2017: We tracked reading this year by time instead of number of pages/books. 30 minutes of reading is one ticket. Each ticket can be entered into raffle for one of six grand prizes. Two of our best readers had read 50 hours by week three! Grand prizes for 2017 are: Pool bag, RC Spider, Bluetooth Headphones, RC Truck, 20" Bicycle, Samsung Galaxy 7" tablet.

Most summers we have a special guest or presenter at some point during the summer. (2016 we hosted a concert featuring Jack and Kitty for our kick-off)

Summer is chaos for my library. As evidenced by my disheveled shelves.
When I think of other pertinent info I will add it in the comments.

Library

The Madison Public Library is the best place to hang out and kill time. When next you are in town. Come see me. I will be here.

I am always here.

My employer is becoming very upset with all my accumulated vacation time. If I am not here when you stop by please ask whoever is here if I have been forced out to 'enjoy myself.'

Library weathers storm...

Nebraska had some bad storms this spring. Lots of wind and rain made the electricity a little less than reliable.
Power was out at the library. Emergency power was enough light to read.
Even in storms a library is a great place to be.

book banquet 2011

We are definitely keeping busy here at the Madison Public Library. Our Book Banquet is coming up in just a couple of weeks. Yikes! I am not ready. I will dress up as Goldilocks. The theme this year: READ...and Live Happily Ever After. Not sure why Mrs Robertson, our coordinator, wants a Goldilocks. In the fairy tale I was told, she doesn't get away from the 3 bears and is never heard from again. Happy thought.

Anyway, Madison Book Banquet March 17, 2011 Madison NE city Auditorium. Be There!!
