Warm Up With...

A WINTER'S TREAT
January 5th - February 28th
ADULTS AGES 18+

Winter arrived this week and if you're anything like us here at the library you're just holing up until Jack Frost has left town. Let us help stave off those shivers! 

Stop in anytime between now and the end of February to earn a weekly treat like hot chocolate, hand warmers, and more! You'll earn cool hot prizes on your second, fourth, and sixth visits with us and may just win a brand new tablet.

You can register for "A Winter's Treat" at our Circulation Desk. Stop in and get out of the cold today!

Questions? Please contact the library through our Facebook page linked above and/or by calling us at (513) 899-2588.

We're Not Just a Library Anymore!


If you have stopped in the library since the start of the new year you may have noticed two exquisitely crafted pieces of a crochet that we have on display. Created by the library's own Sue Books, the first is an adorable red hat adorned with a pink flower. The second, a red and white afghan, looks cozy enough to curl up in. The next time you're in, stop in and take a look at these beautiful pieces.

Do you have a piece that you would like to place on display as well? The library is looking to put your handcrafted pieces on display this month. Don't knit or crochet? No worries! We're accepting any and all crafts or artwork that are handmade (paintings, sculptures, carvings, etc.). All you need to do is stop in, pick up and fill out a display form, and bring in your masterpieces. We cannot wait to see them!

Do you knit already? Or have you always wanted to learn? Stop on in the library on the January 11th from 10:30-10:45 am or January 21st from 10:30-11:30 am for Knitting with Lani. The same goes for crochet. On January 25th, from 4:00-5:00 pm, we will also be hosting Crocheting with Lani.
                    (Please bring your own skeins of yarn and knitting/crocheting needles)
                                                                      (Ages 9+)

On Saturday, January 21st, we will also be hosting "Lego my Library!", the library's first ever Lego-themed program. Open to all ages between kindergarten and eighth grade, the program will run from 12:30-1:30 pm. It is sure to be a hit!
                    (We ask that you please stop in and sign-up to let us know beforehand)

On a final note, please be reminded that the library will be closed on January 16th in observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

Hoping that you're sticking to those New Year resolutions,

Odds and Ends



Hello, readers!

Can you believe that 2012 is just around the corner? Hopefully you are as excited for the New Year as we here at the library are. Do you have your resolutions picked out yet?

On December 10th, the library successfully held its annual Gingerbread House Family Program. It was as entertaining and messy as ever. We hope that all of the families had as much fun constructing their graham cracker and candy houses as we had watching them do so. If you're lucky, your family's photograph may appear in next year's newsletter, so keep an eye out!

Did you happen to see the library on Channel 9 News? Our own director, Jerri Short, along with several staff members made an appearance on last night's and this morning's news in regards to two local children's letters to Santa Claus that were anonymously answered. Talk about Christmas miracles! In case you missed the story, here is a link to the article and video:

December's copy of Unwritten, the collection of poems all written by patrons, is out now.

Hoping that you have a wonderful holiday season and even more joyous new year,

Salem Township Public Library
