Solar glasses are the only glasses that are safe to view the sun. Sunglasses or smoked glasses are not ok.
These glasses make it safe to look at the sun at any time, not just during an eclipse.
SAFETY FACT: Check your glasses over before using them.  You don’t want any scratches on the lens (makes them unsafe).  You shouldn’t be able to see anything through the glasses except the sun.  If you can see anything besides the sun, throw them away.

  An eclipse of the sun occurs when the Moon moves between the Sun and the Earth blocking some of the sun or all of it.  The sun is bigger than the moon, but the sun is much farther away so the moon can block the sight of the sun.  When the two lines up exactly we have a “total” eclipse.  If the line-up is not exact you experience a “partial” eclipse.

If you want a pair of glasses you can pick them up at the library. If it is cloudy or you don’t have any of the glasses you can view the total eclipse at: exploratorium.edu/eclipse.

We get new large print, regular print, and children’s books every month. Along with this we also get new audio books too. Here are the newest books that have come.

Children ages 2 -8 are invited to bring your 2^nd (don’t want a meltdown) favorite stuffed furry friend to the library Friday, 3^rd of  March from 5:30-6:30 PM.  While your child is here he/she will get their furry friend settled in for the friend’s sleepover.  Then they will say good night to their furry friend and follow their night activities on our Facebook page.

Your child can then pick their “friend” up from 9:00-10:00 AM on Saturday, March 4^th, and share doughnuts and orange juice.

Frankentoy Creative Workshop

Get ready for Halloween by creating your very own Frankentoy. 
The library is hosting a Frankentoy Creative Workshop on Wednesday October 19^th from 3:45 to 5:00 PM for 3^rd through 5^th graders.

To create your own Frankentoy, you will take toys apart and reassemble parts to make your Frankentoy.  All parts will be provided.
If you have toys (plastic animals or doll type or stuffed) the library will take donations.  Please don’t bring anything that your child will have problems with seeing it taken apart.
