LETTERS FROM THE LIBRARY

SEPTEMBER 2014

WHAT’S HAPPENING?

Welcome back to school!  Boy, have there been some changes around here or what?!  We have a BRAND NEW library and are soon to have a lot of BRAND NEW books to go with it.  Thanks to generous donations from our lovely Garfield PTA and the Olympia School District Education Foundation, we will be able to add $2000 to our library budget so kids and teachers will have a better selection of books.

 

DO YOU HAVE A PUBLIC LIBRARY CARD?

 

During the month of September, we are encouraging all members of the Garfield community to sign up for a public library card!  Our local Timberland Regional Library has much to offer, from that novel you’ve been dying to read to fun events for the whole family.  Can’t find time or transportation to the library?  No sweat!  You can download eBooks, audio books, movies, and more for FREE without ever having to step foot in the library itself.  Does it get much better than that?

To sign up, visit any Timberland Regional Library location, or click the link below to pull up the form.
