IN CASE YOU MISSED IT- because most everyone did! The early snowfalls in December have resulted in the postponement of the first attempt at the Annual Christmas Open House, and basically no one showing up during the second attempt! SO- the first time you come in to the library between now and when I am closing for Christmas you can still get a free book, a 2026 calendar and one of Santa's candy canes! Come in to say hello!

Santa Claus has also had to deal with a lot of snow so the Open House will be postponed until Wednesday, December 10th from 1-4:30. Santa is planning to arrive shortly after 3 pm. Sorry for the delay.

Our Summer Reading Program kickoff was small but fun! For "Color Your World with Books" we read a silly story about Chameleons and another one that taught us some true facts about Chameleons. Then we made colorful bookmarks. Next week's color focus is "Blue" and we will read a book about a Blue Lobster and another about ocean animals. Then we will paint seashells. Kids might end up getting paint on them, so parents please be prepared. This will be happening on July 2nd at 10:30 am at the Mexico Public Library, 15 Recreation Drive!
