Take 5 minutes to read

Miss the good old days of the drive-in outdoor movies? Then you're in luck because we're bringing them back in "Dave's Drive-In"! On July 25, you'll be able to bring the family to enjoy "Enchanted" at 8:30 pm. Bring lawn chairs and blankets. Refreshments will be available for a small fee but the movie itself (and popcorn) is FREE!

New Hours at the Headquarters

August 1 will see a change in the hours at the Mary Vinson Memorial Library. These changes are due to several factors, with the most prominent being that our funding continues to be a major concern. Though the city and county did give us our first budget increase in seven years for FY 09, we're still severely strapped for cash. The second reason for the changes is due to the addition in October of a third Library branch, which will force us to redistribute our staff. The new hours at the Mary Vinson Memorial Library will be:

Monday: 9 am - 9 pm
Tuesday - Friday 9 am - 6 pm
Saturday 9 am - 1 pm

 

Mark Your Calendars!

The annual Library Fair will be held September 20th and will once again feature a huge book sale, food & games for the kids and a wide range of other fun events, like the Old Capitol Cloggers, Mark the Magic Man and various sales like plants and flea market items. Be there from 9 am to 2 pm for the Library's biggest fundraiser!!!!!!

The Big Read... Coming in Oct '08!

The Twin Lakes Library System is partnering with Georgia College and State University and other community organizations in The Big Read, in which we'll be urging all the citizens of Baldwin County to read the same book in the month of October. The chosen book this year is A Lesson Before Dying by Ernest Gaines. Stay tuned for more details but confirmed events already include an outdoor showing of the film at Mary Vinson, book talks and dramatic interpretations of the novel!
