It is official–the Summer Reading Program has begun! Be sure to bring in your reading log to get stamped. There is still time to sign-up if you have not done so. Apple released iOS 7 recently and many Apple users may have upgraded their device(s) or will be upgrading in the near future. When an existing OverDrive Media Console (OMC) user upgrades to iOS 7, the app will fail when trying to open a DRM-protected eBook. New or first time users of OMC are unaffected by this issue meaning that if you download the app for the first time post-iOS7 update you will not experience this issue. We are resolving the issue but in the meantime, the immediate remedy for users is to uninstall and re-install the Overdrive Media Console app which will also require the user to re-authorize with Adobe. IMPORTANT NOTE: A re-install will clear a user’s bookshelf, history, and app settings. Audiobook users won’t notice that anything is different unless they attempt to download parts of audiobooks they already downloaded to OMC before upgrading to iOS 7. A user will receive an error message informing them to download the title again. An important element of early literacy is reading aloud to small children. You cannot start too soon – even pre-verbal children love their books! There are several reasons why libraries make a priority of offering storytimes to preschool children.
But the best reason of all is that a great story read aloud is a pure pleasure, both to the teller and to the listener. A story shared by an enthusiastic reader and enriched with bright pictures generates shivers of anticipation and delight in the listeners, introducing them to the magic of worlds to be discovered in books.
We have been focusing on refreshing our collection of business books. From books on mastering social media to building an entrepreneurial ecosystem in our city, our business community will find plenty of food for thought at the library! Download the Business Bibliography now. Explore A Simple Taste for Reading, a book review blog by our own Sierra Klein. She writes thoughtfully on a wide variety of titles, and will introduce many of you to new authors. Always my favorite thing! “Like” her page on Facebook for regular updates! Thanks Sierra! |
