As an FYI for book donations:
You may drop off book donations during regular operating hours. We ask that you wait to donate books until after our next book sale as our space is limited. We will have more space after the book sale.
We accept gently used books, DVDs, and most magazines.
We do not accept faded/yellow/battered/moldy books, textbooks, encyclopedias, VHS tapes, National Geographic & Readers Digest.
Once donated, the books become the property of the library and are evaluated in the same manner as purchased materials. Materials that are useful to the library collection are retained, and other materials are placed in the book sale or disposed of in whatever manner the library deems best. The donor is not notified about the final disposition of the book unless this is specifically requested at the time of donation.
The library cannot guarantee or ensure that donated items will be added to the library collection.
What I'm currently reading
The Last Place by Laura Lippman.
Here is a new book you should check out!
Peril by Bob Woodward and Robert Costa
I'm finding it difficult to not hear about this book whenever I check the news. Woodward seems to get all the dirt on people in power, either from well-placed sources or the individual themselves.
Surprisingly, political books are not as popular here as you may think. Maybe we get enough politics in our news feed. But if you were to read one political author, Woodward is in the discussion.

Rain, Rain, Rain
Thursday, September 23rd, 2021 - the Juniata county library will be closed due to severe weather and flooding conditions. The library closely follows the schools when it comes to closures due to weather.
Stay safe, friends! If you must be out, please remember: Turn Around, Don't Drown. Roads underwater may be washed out!
