LIBRARY HAPPENINGS MAY 12-18
ADULT SERVICES:
The film No Reservations will be shown on Monday, May 12, at 7 p.m. Catherine Zeta Jones and Abigail Breslin star in this humorously moving story of a dedicated chef whose life changes when she becomes responsible for her recently orphaned niece. Rated PG.
Two Computer Classes are scheduled for this week:
Beginning Excel will be presented on Wednesday, May 14, at 7 p.m.--learn to format cells, use formulas, make databases, sort information, and more. Unfortunately, this class is already full.
Internet Basics will be presented on Saturday, May 17, at 2:15 p.m.--for newcomers to the Internet, learn about toolbars, URL's, and simple navigation. This class has a Waiting List.
All computer classes require that attendees already be able to use a computer mouse. Class sizes are limited. Register online.
YOUTH SERVICES:
Summer Reading--June 9-25--will be starting in a few weeks. As usual, student volunteers are needed to help run the program. Interested students in grades 6-12 are asked to come to one of two scheduled informational meetings:
Tuesday, May 27, at 7 p.m.
Wednesday, May 28, at 4 p.m.
These meetings may last over an hour and a half. A parent should come also--to sign permission slips--and summer schedules (vacations, sports, etc.) should already be known. Students will be able to start signing up for their hours at this meeting--first come, first served.
Hours may be counted as Community service.
The YA Battle of the Books Final Battle ended with the following results:
First Place--Grove Junior High
Second Place--Mead Junior High
Third Place--Queen of the Rosary
Congratulations to all participating teams!
