Hello Again!!

Today is the 13th of April. Can you believe that? This year is just flying by. Before you know it we will be faced with the anniversary of the first roof collapse on our library, which occurred early on the morning of July 29th, 2009. So much as changed, and will keep changing (for the good we hope) in the next few months.



Some of you might have attended our recent cemetery walk. The day turned out beautiful and we heard many great comments about the presentation and the presenters. We already have next years’s walk on the calendar, so watch for more details about it on this blog and the Palestine Public Library’s website. The event is scheduled for Saturday April 2, 2011 and will encompass a different section of the cemetery. We hope to see you there!



I am still doing queries for patrons via email. If you need a copy of an obituary, or some other Anderson county reference, please drop me a line or give me a call. I’ll be glad to do what I can to help. I’ll also give you help and tips on how to trace your family if you wish. Or even how to start your quest! Just give me a call! Our number is still (903) 729-4121 and my email is klang@palestine.lib.tx.us


 
For those of you who haven’t checked out our website lately, you might want to do that. We now have a Digital Branch! There are E-Books and Audio books for our patrons to download straight from our website. It’s really an easy process, but if you have problems with it, just give us a call and we’ll walk you through it.

Currently, we have several blogs that are maintained by us concerning different areas of the library. If you would like to read them, you can access them from our library’s website. Our website is: http://www.youseemore.com/palestine/  Click the tab titled “PPL on the Web” to read the blogs. We also have a facebook page for our library now. Check it out, and let us know what you think!


And don’t forget! April 12-30th, every comment you contribute to any of our blogs or to our library facebook page, automatically enters your name into the drawing for the Free Sony Reader. There is no limit to how many times you can enter, so start commenting! Remember, if you comment anonymously, we won’t know who you are. Include your first and last name on the comment for us to ensure that you get your chance at this exciting prize!



Until Next time!!
