🥇 Library Champion Newsletter | Summertime at the library ⛱️
Library Champion,
Summertime is one of our favorite times of the year at the library. So many new and familiar faces visit us as they travel to the area or are on break. Many people stop in to load up on books or borrow a hotspot for their upcoming trip. And many youth take part in our summer programming that is an absolute blast.
Before you visit, here are some reminders:
- Our hours are Monday 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, Tuesday 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, Wednesday Closed, Thursday 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, Friday 1:00 PM to 7:00 PM, and Saturday 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM
- Masks are not required while visiting the library for those who are fully vaccinated or medically exempt. For those who are not vaccinated, mask-wearing is recommended but not required. It’s your call here at the library! Read more.
- Anyone who lives in Pennsylvania can get a library card either online or in-person. Read more.
- Make sure to visit us this summer and take part in our summer reading programs for all ages. Read more.
Similar to The Terror, I started to read The Corner by David Simon and lost interest. I don’t remember exactly why, but I am giving it another shot. Made by the creator of my favorite TV show The Wire, The Corner is narrative nonfiction about West Baltimore from the perspective of several different people. It breaks down the history of how the city devolved, from being an imperfect but stable community to one that now has a certain level of permament poverty.
