Q&A with Ms. Haley!

 As you may know, Ms. Carol retired at the end of the summer, after 20+ years of storytimes and children's programming.
Ms. Haley has joined us as our new children's programming guru (you can check out her welcome/introduction video here on our facebook page), and our furry ambassadors recently took the opportunity to interview her - asking the tough questions we're all curious about!

The Furry Ambassadors: Who is your favorite storybook character?
Ms. Haley: Junie B. Jones

Who is your favorite author?
Nicholas Sparks and J.K. Rowling

What is your favorite genre to read?
Fantasy and Romance (basically anything that is a Hallmark movie in book form)

Reading snacks: Yes or No?
Does coffee count? If so then it is a big yes!
{Coffee definitely counts, even though we bunnies like cocoa better}.

Which is better: Book or Movie?
Book!

Who is your favorite Disney Princess?
Belle from Beauty and the Beast
{Belle is Librarian R's favorite too!}

You can hang out with any fictional character for a day -- who do you pick? Why?
Hermione Granger. She's smart, she can do magic, and she appreciates a good trip to the library!

What is your favorite way to relax and have fun (when you're not reading)?
Hiking/exploring parks, spending time with my family and fiancé.

What is your favorite color?
Purple ... or pink ...

What is your favorite holiday/celebration?
Christmas!! 😁🎄 (But Thanksgiving and Easter are close seconds)
{We love Christmas too! Our favorite part is decorating the tree and making everything look festive!}

What is your favorite pizza topping?
Pepperoni

What is your favorite ice cream flavor and/or sweet treat?
Cookies-n-cream milkshake from CookOut or Chick-fil-A

That was a lot of fun! Welcome, Ms. Haley!

Stay tuned for further updates from the Library about when in-person programming will return, as well as some new virtual content and fun things coming our way.

It's a bear! It's a bunny! It's a plane!

With the Library doors open for visitors again, our display cases are once more filled with a revolving collection of items for your viewing pleasure.
This September, we are privileged to host a display of Scale 1:72 model planes. These WWII fighters have amazing detail, and have been catching the eye of all who walk by.
