Want to have extra books and movies on hand so you can relax at home, but worried about needing to return them during the chaos?
As a courtesy to our patrons, no items will be due August 16th through 28th.
Check out what you need now and don’t worry about needing to return them until after the crowds go home. (One week items – like DVDs – checked out prior to August 9 will still be due before the eclipse.)
Also, we will be closed Saturday, August 19th, and Monday, August 21st.
Learn more about our eclipse events!

“Adventure Cats” by Laura J. Moss
Finally a book for folks who love the outdoors and would love to enjoy it with their furry partners. My neighborhood isn’t a safe place for unsupervised exploring much to door dashing Gracie’s disgust. I now have a system for getting her leash trained and outdoor approved. I don’t know if she’ll ever take on a surf board or skis, but this summer, Grace is getting out!

“The Totally Unscientific Study of the Search for Human Happiness” by Paula Poundstone

Can one find happiness behind the wheel of a Lamborghini? How about in an nursing home? A dojo? Paula Poundstone’s not entirely scientific inquiries of these and many other pressing questions are answered in this latest book. From getting connected to getting outdoors, she pursues each possibility with total abandon and laugh out loud results. And down under the mirth, there’s some meat as well. I know which experiments I’ll be exploring.
