What should I read this summer?
Summer is the perfect time to enjoy leisurely reading–you have time, you’re on vacation, and you get to relax! This summer you could choose among the list below for reading. Or you could open up a Shelfari account to see what others are reading. Become Eddie Reads’ friend–our library eagle, Ann Krembs’ friend, or Gizelle Rodriques’. Once you all start joining you can make a network of your friends. You can even add the Shelfari application to your Facebook profile!
