February Happenings in the Graham Library
For Valentine's Day we have our Love at First Line display ready for an adventurous (or timid!) reader to fall in love with a great book at the first line. Check out our display of books with just the first line displayed on the cover. Can you recognize these books by their first lines? Students are having a great time exploring the display and going on a blind date with a book!
A Love Letter to Your Library
Did a library nurture your love of reading, provide you a place to study and relax or introduce you to new ideas? This month we want to explore the impact libraries have on our lives and tell them just how important they are. Send your library a note to say you care! We welcome you to send your love and gratitude to the champions of reading and tell them why they are important to you!
Download the template below, write your letter and send it straight to your local or school library, or any library that made an impact on your life.

Return Book Reminder
Graham Bears, please check at home, in your backpack and in your classrooms for missing or overdue books.
Parents, you can help too! Remind your student to find and return any overdue library books now.
Students can check their gmail account for an overdue notice (parents receive a copy too). Returning an overdue book means another student gets the chance to enjoy it.
