TRICK OR TREAT!!!! October 31, 2017

Looks like Dr. Egon Spengler (with the proton pack), Witchy Witch, Bat Girl, and King Ander are all set for Trick-or-Treating tonight....stop by the Adrian Branch Library and get a glow stick on a lanyard, as well as lots of goodies to eat!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So, here I am, thinking I have this brilliant idea to have the door going into our library decorated as a Medieval castle entry.  My better half was helping me, and while I was contemplating if it was OK to have it off center, he began to laugh and pointed out that it was probably the first ancient castle to have an automatic door.....

LIBRARY HOPPING IN WASHINGTON, D.C. September 1, 2017

The Library Dragons have to check out the best library in the United States:  The Library of Congress:

 

 The Library Dragons also checked out the three-story library found on floors six, seven, and eight in the Paul H. Nitze School of Advanced International Studies of Johns Hopkins University in Washington, D.C.:

THE LIBRARY DRAGONS PREPARE FOR ANOTHER TRIP August 28, 2017

 The Library Dragons are finalizing their trip plan for Washington, D.C.  This will be a new and exciting adventure for the Dragons!

 The maps look good; Frommer’s has so much information! Now it is time to go and pack.

What’s this?  Is it possible that there could be a stowaway on the trip????!

WHERE ARE THE DRAGONS? Thursday, July 13, 2017

The Library Dragons are back in the renovated space and they LOVE IT!  They are looking forward to the Grand Re-Opening on Friday, July 14, 2017; 11:00 a.m. – 7:00 p.m.

To add to the fun, the Library Dragons are HIDING in plain sight!  While adults are looking around, kids can do a little Library Dragon scavenger hunt, to see if they can spy those mischief makers!

Stop in and see the space, enjoy treats, pick up novelties, and sign-up to win a book, some of which were autographed by William Kent Krueger!

GIFTS FROM WILLIAM KENT KRUEGER! June 22, 2017

We wanted something special to give away in a drawing during our Grand Re-opening on Friday, July 14, 2017; 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.

We wrote to Mr. William Kent Krueger and asked him if he would mind autographing a book for us for the occasion.  We offered to purchase/send him a book, but he generously told us, “No,” that he was happy to contribute to the cause.

When the package arrived, I was so excited I dropped it! So, the Dragons said, “here, let US do it!”

YAYYYYY!!!  Aren’t these fantastic?  THANK YOU, KENT!!!

 

I would like to say that the Dragons were really excited about the wonderful books (I know I was) but then they discovered something that, for Library Dragons, was a bit more entertaining. . .
