I love our Big Sandy Library. It’s a new brand of the library. I remember going to Valley County Library, only to be “shhhh”! This library is full of life and laughter. That is not saying you can’t find a time when it’s quiet, but you’ll need to know when the times are. Big Sandy is doing a lot of things right with this library. A whole generation is learning to enjoy going to the library.
My granddaughter Dorothea went into the library to get Henry and came out with a book in her hand. She said she had the book reserved so she could read it next when it was returned. Dorothea got into the back of my car, put her seat belt on, and started reading. She finished that rather big book by the next day.
You’ll need to go into the library and pick up a sheet to remember what kind of activity is planned for the summer.
