Coming soon...new library cards!

Beginning on September 8, 2009, we will begin issuing new library cards to new patrons of the Andover Public Library. These cards are plastic and include a card you can keep in your wallet, as well as a key tag card (similar to those you've probably received from various grocery store chains, CVS, etc., etc.) Our fabulous Friends of the Library group has purchased these cards which feature a very handsome image of the library taken by Andover resident (and Friends' member) Roger Maynard.

Plastic cards will be issued to new patrons who are residents of Andover, as well as to "old" patrons (that is, those patrons who already have the blue paper library cards) beginning September 8th.

FREE Bluegrass event -- Friday, August 14th

The Andover Friends of the Library present an evening of Bluegrass music for the whole family with

GRASS ROUTES

Friday, August 14, 2009

6:30PM

Andover Gazebo (in front of the Andover Elementary School)

35 School Road, Andover

Show will held inside the town hall community room in the event of rain.

Bring your chairs and blankets and enjoy music from this veteran Connecticut band. For nearly 30 years, Grass Routes has been performing a broad repetoire of songs ranging from straight-ahead traditional Bluegrass to more contemporary folk and country music. They have appeared on radio and television, and have performed throughout the Northeast.

The library's 7/15/2009 HOMETOWN NEWS submission...

Is summer finally here? It hasn’t really felt much like summer, but the calendar tells us it is! In the library, that means summer reading and summer reading programs have arrived. If you’re not sure what’s going on, here’s a little refresher:

• Wednesday, July 22nd – 7PM : THE HISTORY OF JAZZ
  Join CT musician, Vincent Cassotta, as he delivers an educational and entertaining concert for the whole family featuring all types of jazz, from Dixieland through modern jazz and jazz rock. Please note that this program will be held in the Andover Congregational Church’s air-conditioned sanctuary (across the street from the library).
• Friday, August 14th – 6:30PM : GRASS ROUTES BLUEGRASS
  Celebrate summer with a free concert from one of Connecticut’s premier Bluegrass bands, GrassRoutes (http://www.grassroutesbluegrass.com/). For nearly 30 years, this group has been performing all over New England, and has appeared on many radio and TV programs, and at concerts in coffee houses, festivals, and other venues. GrassRoutes performs a broad range of songs from traditional Bluegrass to more contemporary
  folk and country material. Bring your chair, blanket, and lots of family and friends to this fine, free concert. Location: the Town Gazebo on School Road (in front of Andover Elementary School). In the event of rain, the show will be held in the new Community Room in the Town Hall.
  
  In addition to these events, we have several reading programs (with incentives) for both children and adults. Our challenge for the family is the program known as ICE CREAM FOR BOOKS. Read this summer, and keep count of the number of pages you’ve read – 2,000 pages for kids up to age 14, and 4,000 pages for those older than 14. Read what you like, but books must be borrowed from the Andover Public Library. If you’re able to reach the goal, you’ll get a voucher for a free ice cream sundae at the GrassRoutes Bluegrass show on August 14th. When you visit the library, be sure to note the sizes of the two “cones” we’re building, as our challenge is to see who can make a bigger ice cream by reading this summer – the adults or the kids. Thanks to the Friends of the Library for sponsoring the Bluegrass show and the ice cream goodies that will be available.
  
  Other reading incentives for kids include programs from the Connecticut Defenders, as well as Applebee’s.
  
  Don’t forget that there are lots of museum passes available for you to borrow this summer from places as varied as the Basketball Hall of Fame, Mystic Aquarium, the Roger Williams Zoo, and the Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art. Passes may be borrowed and used to receive discounted or free admission to these and other area museums. A complete list of available museum passes is posted in the library. If you have any questions about borrowing procedures, please visit the library or call us at 742-7428.
  
  On June 22nd, we hosted a very nice book discussion featuring Rhode Island author, Edward Hardy, and his second novel, Keeper And Kid. Twelve lively and enthusiastic patrons kept the discussion rolling, and it’s safe to say that a fine time was had by all. Our next book discussion will be held on Monday, July 27th, and will feature Bill Bryson’s recap of his travels along the Appalachian Trail in A Walk In The Woods. Copies of the book are available at the desk – please ask for one, and be sure to join us at 6:30PM on July 27th.
  
  Don’t forget that the library is not open on Saturdays from July 1st through Labor Day. We’ll be open again on Saturdays beginning on September 12th.
  
  Have a great summer, and be sure to visit us at the library soon!

THANKS!

The Andover Friends of the Library met last night, and voted to give the library a total of $6,767. This money was raised through the efforts of the Friends with their May 1st Goods & Services Auction, as well as other fundraising endeavors over the past year, and will be used for all sorts of great things for the library. Specifically, we'll use some of the money to buy or renew our many museum passes, produce more programming for kids as well as the whole family, and buy more books on CD and DVDs. Life for the library would be a lot more difficult without the Friends, so if you're not currently a member of the group, won't you consider joining?

Thanks to the Attorney General, here are some new CDs...

In the Fall of 2007, the CT State Attorney General's office distributed funds to CT libraries in the settlement of a case brought by the AG against five of the largest compact disc distributors and three large retailers whose sales practices allegedly led to artificially high retail prices for music CDs. With the $700+ we received, the Andover PL has purchased 67 CDs with the funds we received, and they have been added to our collection. Enjoy!
