The Big Read 2009 -- To Kill A Mockingbird

As you may have heard, the book chosen for the Hartford Region's BIG READ for 2009 is Harper Lee's classic, To Kill A Mockingbird. We invite you to join in our book discussion here at Andover PL on Monday, February 23rd. We will have two sessions for our Mockingbird discussion: one at 10:15AM and the other at 6:30PM. Please choose one, and join us! Ask at the circulation desk for a copy today!

Library closed Wednesday, January 28, 2009...

No January book discussion for adults...

As we couldn't borrow enough copies from other libraries of The Widows Of Eden by George Shaffner at this time, we have canceled that discussion group which was tentatively scheduled for Monday, January 26th. We are participating in the Hartford Region's BIG READ 2009 campaign, though. Our book discussion of Harper Lee's To Kill A Mockingbird will be held on Monday, February 23rd at 6:30PM.

The Senior Discussion Group will be discussing Keeper And Kid by Andrew Hardy on Monday, January 26th at 10:15AM. Cathy Campen is the discussion leader.

Copies of these two books are available the library's circulation desk.

Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at the Andover Public Library!

And the total is...

The Friends' Goods & Services Auction on May 2nd raised nearly $3,200!! Thanks to all of those who donated items, and, of course, especially to those who attended the event and placed their bids! Very soon, the Friends will give a portion of these funds to the library, so be on the lookout for new books on CD, DVDs, museum passes, and other nifty things!

BIG Friends fundraising auction TOMORROW -- Friday, May 2nd!

In case you haven't heard, the Friends of the Andover Public Library are holding their 5th annual Goods & Services Auction tomorrow night -- Friday, May 2nd -- in the cafeteria at the Andover Elementary School, School Road, Andover. Preview starts at 6PM, and the auction will begin at 6:30PM.

Each year, the Friends hold this auction, and the proceeds are then donated to the library to be used for such things as purchasing museum passes, DVDs, books on CD, programming, and other fabulous things that benefit the library (and therefore, our patrons). Won't you consider joining the Friends and supporting this huge event? There are some terrific items up for bid this year, including passes to museums and attractions all over the Northeast, gift certificates to area restaurants, even a visit from Mr. & Mrs. Santa Claus to your family or office Christmas party!
