Pop-Up library update

·     (Per Mary Wagoner)

             When children visit, please ask them if they have participated in a Pop Up Library event. 
·         When they say, “Yes”, please ask them for the punch card. 

·         If they do not have a punch card, assure them that it is okay and please go ahead and award them a free Pop Up Library book.  Please make a hash mark on the tally sheet. 
            
During May, June and July, the Pop Up Library team has travelled throughout 35 zip codes in Houston delivering storytimes, interactive activities and iPad activities at area WIC clinics, parks, HEB grocery stores, housing authority sites and more.  To date, the team has completed the following:
·         251 sessions
·         186 programming hours
·         Total of 4170 attendees!
o   2891 juveniles
o   1279 adults

      We are looking forward to a very busy August schedule!  One of our goals is reinforcing the positive experience of coming to the library.

Weeding is on hold for now

Team,

Weeding has been placed on hold for now. The warehouse is running out of room. We will be informed when to resume weeding and boxing of items for friends and discards. Items absolutely nasty  and unusable, can be removed from our collection.
