LIBRARY SHELF
The Weekly Packet|05/28/2020
We’ve taken advantage of this extended closure to catch up on some long overdue projects that will benefit our patrons.
LIBRARY SHELF

Blue Hill Public Library

Some are routine maintenance and repairs to the building and parking lot, while others are improvements such as making the Tenney Hill walkway and entrance completely accessible.

The library is planning to open for curbside pickup and delivery only beginning on June 1. Check bhpl.net/ wemissyou for event details and updates.

Storytime

Two new “Storytime with Claire” videos are posted each week, on Tuesday and Thursday and can be accessed at bhpl.net. Claire Malina, Youth Services Librarian sings a song, reads a story and sometimes demonstrates a related craft or shares a video of something at the library related to the story. Send us a photo of your kids participating or with the craft they made!
