FERRIS PUBLIC LIBRARY: More than books (June 25, 2020)

The Ferris Public Library’s Virtual Summer Reading Club continues! To participate, go to our Facebook page, and there will be links to various programming. All About Animals’ that was posted on June 15, will expire on June 26, so you still have time to view Cindi’s show. On Monday, June 22, Science Tellers “Dragons: Return of the Ice Sorceress” was posted. It’s a fun show and has great lessons to learn as well. He’s very entertaining, and kids won’t even realize that they’re learning! Become a Fan of the library on Facebook, and you’ll receive notifications as we post events.

Every Tuesday, you can visit the Ferris Public Library and pick up a free Grab & Go Activity Bag that has a craft and activities for your youngsters to do at home. 

The Ferris Public Library’s new hours are Monday – Thursday, 9 a.m. – 6 p.m.; closed Friday – Sunday. We have new safety protocols to keep everyone healthy. A COVID-19 prescreening form must be filled out by every visitor, a temperature check, face coverings required, hands sanitized or washed, and observe a 6-foot distancing guideline. A minor inconvenience but well worth it for our citizens’ safety. We are cleaning computers after each use and disinfecting common areas, and door handles often. The City has facilities professionally sprayed with virus disinfectant weekly.

NEW BOOKS: “Treason” by Stuart Woods, “Chasing Cassandra” by Lisa Kleypas, “Last Day” by Luanne Rice, “Blindside: A Michael Bennett Novel” by James Patterson, “Brother & Sister: A Memoir” by Diane Keaton, “A Girl Stands at the Door: The Generation of Young Women Who Desegregated America’s Schools” (LP Dewey 379) by Rachel Devlin, and “Thunder in the Mountains: Chief Joseph, Oliver Otis Howard and the Nez Perce War” (LP Dewey 979) by Daniel J. Sharfstein.
