PRESCHOOL STORY TIMES:  Story times for preschool children will resume the first week in January of 2016.  This includes two sessions of Mother Goose, one session of Bitty Books, and three sessions of Kiddie Lit.  Not sure where you child belongs? Give us a jingle and ask to speak to any staff member in the youth department—Kathy Watson, Carolyn, or Celeste.    

NEW YEAR’S PARTY AGAIN: OH NO! Did you miss a New Year's Eve party? Come to ours! We'll make something that sparkles, something noisy, and something to eat just to celebrate the brand new year 2016! Smaller children will need adult help. How do people around the world celebrate the New Year?  Register preschool children up through grade 5 and come and find out.  You can never have too many parties.  J

CONSTANT CONTACT: For the past 6 years, people have chosen to share their email address with us so they can get a lengthy newsletter email twice a month regarding all the latest events, special hours, forthcoming books, and a myriad of other library related trivia.  We’re changing our format to a shorter more colorful update and if you don’t already get our news, NOW is the time to get on board.  We will be sending newsy emails from Constant Contact, and all you have to do to get enrolled is to register by clicking on our website and entering the pertinent information.  Alternatively, you may stop by or give us a call and ask us to enroll you.  If you are already receiving ‘Kimball Library E-Happenings: Kibbles & Bits’ twice a month, we will have transferred you over to Constant Contact.  Please stay in touch with us, as we enjoy staying in touch with YOU.
