Bolivar Branch Birth through 5 yrs. Tuesdays at 10:30AM Strasburg Branch Director’s Corner I love living in a geographic area where we get to enjoy the changing of the seasons. With only four seasons, you’d think I could easily decide which one is my favorite. Truth be told, my favorite is usually the one that is just about to happen. As I look at our library system’s latest Between the Lines, I feel the same way about the seasons of our library. Summer was absolutely wonderful as we encouraged and celebrated reading with so many kids, teens, and families. But as that great chapter ends, I am excited to turn the page to the next chapter. As our communities anticipate the fall line-up of high school sports, the backpacks and lunch bags, the fair and the fall festivals -- YOUR Tuscarawas County Public Library System is excited to present an excellent line up of learning opportunities and fun events to enjoy. We have redesigned our Between the Lines with the customer in mind. It is now organized about YOU the customer rather than about us the library. Looking for a program for little kids? Turn to the pages marked Emerging Learners for a complete listing of what is offered across the system in month-by-month order. Looking for something fun to do for free as an adult? Turn to the pages marked Adult and Adult Clubs. Each program listing in the Between the Lines includes the TCPL location where the program is offered and the date that registration opens for each event. Because our program offerings fill up quickly, registration for each program opens three weeks prior to the event. Staff at any of our TCPL locations can assist you in registering for a TCPL event regardless of which location it is held. Simply call or stop at a service desk. Fall is a GREAT time to Create It. Learn it. Live it. @ the library! Happy Fall y’all! Sincerely, Michelle McMorrow Ramsell Birth through 5 yrs. Wednesdays at 10:30AM Sugarcreek Branch Birth through 5 yrs.
