Kimball Library News 5/18/2020

Want to learn more about how to use NH Downloadable Books? Check out the NH Downloadable Books YouTube channel for tutorials on checking out and returning eBooks, enjoying audiobooks, & more.
https://bit.ly/3aOaoU5  You can access the service by visiting our website and clicking on the Downloadable Books icon. 

TAKE OUT AT YOUR LIBRARY: It’s live!  If you are interested in particular titles, call us with your library card in hand. If they are available here at Kimball, we will retrieve them and check them out to you. Tell us when you’re on your way between 10:00 AM and 6:00 PM and we’ll have the titles ready and waiting for you. Open the front door and you’ll find a table immediately adjacent to it with your materials on it. You won’t enter the building and there will be no physical contact with the staff.

You are also welcome to place reserves yourself 24/7 through the catalog for Kimball items only. We will pull them the next morning and every hour after that. All you need to do is call us with your library card and let us know when you are on your way.

It’s also time to begin to return items you may have had out when the Library closed. Please return Kimball materials via the book drops at the side of the building; we cannot accept returns at the front door. After checking them in, they will be quarantined for 4 days. Fines will not be charged during the month of May.

MINI MOTHER GOOSE ON THE LOOSE: Are those babies, toddlers, and young preschoolers missing “Mother Goose on the Loose?” Miss Kathy has some mini (shortened) versions available on YouTube.  We are so thankful we have already received some videos of the little ones joining in with rhymes, animal sounds, and saying their name during the drum roll call!  Want to know more?  Search up our Kimball Library Youtube channel, or try this link to see if the littles in your life are ready to chant along with Mother Goose rhymes! (Mini Mother Goose playlist-- https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHm9ld2UdB_WpbzAxbYbUTLtoMO5IzM_K).

SUMMER READING REGISTRATION: Wow, where has the time gone?  It’s hard to believe that school is out and registration for this year’s ‘Imagine Your Story’ at Kimball Library starts June 5, 2020. As you can imagine (no pun intended), there will be changes this year but we are keeping those a secret as of this press release. Just know that registration will be available online and we will have exciting programs and magical things up our sleeves!  Get ready to ‘Imagine Your Story’ with us and may the fairy dusting begin!

NH HUMANITIES: If you don’t receive our electronic news, now is the time! Just last week two exciting NH Humanities program links were issued including Yankee Ingenuity: Stories of Headstrong & Resourceful People and Saga Of The Submarine Squalus (documentary film). Keep up to date to get all the latest by subscribing. Visit our website and click the blue button on the top right of the page that says ‘Kimball E-News’. You are on your way!

STAY TUNED: Visit our website, FaceBook page, Twitter account, Youtube or Instagram to learn about more updates and resources to come.  We miss all our face-to-face interactions with our wonderful community, but safe practice says ‘see you online.’  We have upcoming events online as well that you or your children will be able to participate in.  See you there!
