“Blind Date With a Book” Through February 28!

Library Events

Blind Date With a Book

Make a Blind Date With a Book (February 1-28).  Tired of your same old relationships?  Need something new and exciting?  During the month of February, stop by the library for a mysterious rendezvous.  We’d like to fix you up with a blind d…ate (with a book of course);  after all we are a library!  We’ll select a variety of books, wrap them up in plain brown paper (no peeking) and you won’t know the “identity” of your blind date until you get it home.  Each book will have a “Rate Your Date” slip.  With each slip returned, you can enter to win a drawing to win dinner for two at the Lincoln Manor Steak House in Central City.  So, be sure to stop by the library anytime between February 1-28.  Who know, you might get lucky; if not in love then perhaps in literature?
