You can tell the health and well-being of a community by its library.

Are you saving those padded envelopes and bubble wrap for us?
Remember the library would like to have those padded shipping envelopes that are everywhere this time of year. We can also use any bubble wrap that tumbles out of those shipping boxes. Whatever the size we can use them for shipping our DVDs and audio books around northeast Kansas and state wide. They really do help protect the cases and discs. Leave them in our drop box if you need to. Thank you for remembering us!
You’d be surprised at how quickly we go through these items when shipping our DVDs and audio books. Small boxes come in handy too when we have a stack of movies to send out. In cold weather, they need all the protection they can get!
Thank you!

*******************************************************HHow to Behave in the Library
PLEASE AND THANK YOU!
Library programs are often a child’s first “live performance” experience. Participating in a story time or enjoying a program is different than watching TV or a movie. At these programs and story time, the behavior of the audience can positively or negatively affect the program. A good audience allows the presenter to deliver the best presentation possible. Parents and caregivers are role models for their children and set the example for behavior.
With this in mind, we request that parents and caregivers follow these important etiquette guidelines to ensure a valuable and pleasant program experience for all.

This is the table in our Kansas Room where our board meets the third Wednesday of each month.
In Library Board news: The following four library board members retired in April after serving their full terms: Brenda Mee, Mary Haug, Lacey Frehe, and Matt Lueger. The library staff appreciates their dedication and willingness to serve. Thank you!
The four new board trustees will be Cathy Enneking, Paula Kohlman, Jackie Deters, and James Lueger. They attended their first meeting Wednesday May 16. Election of officers was also held. Cathy Enneking will be Chairperson; Paul Boeding, Vice-Chair; Paula Kohlman, Secretary and James Lueger, Treasurer. Andy Strathman and Barbara Vitt fill out the board. Welcome and thank you for joining our team!
We didn’t get pictures, so you will need to imagine our board members around the table.
We can’t stop talking about our Wonderland Murder Mystery Dinner! Everyone had a wonderful time and we’ve had requests to do another.
We can’t thank the cast enough for their wonderful performance and our dinner guests for supporting our fundraiser for the Main Street Music Garden.
And also, thanks to Jolene Hundley for the fantastic meal.
We are busy making plans for summer time fun for our young patrons. If your family consumes oatmeal or Pringles, please save the cartons/cans for the library.
We would prefer the larger (42oz) oatmeal containers. We need the lids for both projects too.
We are sharing recipes for oatmeal and Pringles to help our patrons use more of these products over the next couple of months.
Once we get enough of the items we need, we will start discussing plans for an exercise club.
Do you have an oatmeal recipe we can share? Or maybe one for Pringles?
I found a recipe for chocolate covered Pringles on Pinterest!! If you try an ‘exotic’ flavor of Pringles, please be sure to send along a review of the different flavors you try.
