Beyond Search Engines: Internet Research for Students Grades 6-12: Tuesday, February 19, 2008 from 5:00 pm to 6:00 pm. Reduce time finding the information you need for homework and projects.

Parents of young readers will want to try out our new e-book collection from Tumblebooks, available on our website, www.unionlibrary.org. These animated tales will engage early readers with images, sound and words. A great way to support and promote reading in a tech savvy world. Please call us if you need assistance.

This week’s Winter Storytime for pre-school children:

Teacher, Teacher Look at Me!-one of Union’s beloved teachers will be here to read a story and visit with her young friends. Don’t miss this opportunity to meet someone new and to hear a wonderful storyteller read her favorite book. February 19, 2008 at 10:00 am.

Next week we’ll be building a graham cracker house during storytime. Come along and learn something new and have a great time munching and building with Ms. Cindy. February 26, 2008 at 10:00 pm

If you missed our classical guitarist last year, start planning now for Robert Sharpe’s performance at the Carnegie Library, Sunday, March 9 at 4:00-5:00 pm.
A performer with the Wofford College Troubadour Series, Sharpe was first prize winner of the 2006 East Carolina University Guitar Fest. He has performed throughout the United States as well as in Italy and Slovenia. Light refreshments will be served and all who attend will have the opportunity to meet the performer.
Don’t miss this wonderful opportunity right here at your public library.
