Newbrook Library serves up some summer fun

By Brandie Majeau

Summer at Newbrook Public Library is a unique experience. Beyond the usual

access to information and a wide range of books, the library provides a refreshing

escape from the summer heat. The cool air invites patrons to relax and immerse

themselves in captivating stories that transport them to distant lands. This also gives

readers a chance to join the Northern Lights summer reading program for a chance to

win exciting prizes.

Throughout the first half of summer, Newbrook Public Library has been bustling

with exciting events and activities including a Bingo Bonanza, make-your-own-treats,

engaging science experiments, movie nights, tie-dye shirt-making, and a delightful bike

parade. Despite the unexpected heat, the library has been dedicated to providing a

range of enriching experiences for the local youth. Looking ahead, the library is gearing

up for another month brimming with adventure and joy. Ongoing programs such as the

Monday afternoon book club, Coffee & Conversations, Make It Mondays, and a variety

of children’s crafting and story sessions from Monday to Thursday will continue.

Additionally, be sure to keep an eye out for upcoming events including book bingo,

ghost hunting, diamond art bookmarks, geocaching, and creative vision boards.

Libraries play a vital role in our neighborhoods, providing access to a wide range

of information and resources. These inclusive spaces welcome people from all walks of

life, offering opportunities for learning, exploration, and personal growth. In addition to

being centers of knowledge, libraries also serve as social hubs, fostering connections

and interactions among individuals with shared interests. The Newbrook Public Library,

like others, is an integral part of its community, creating an environment where

individuals can share knowledge, insights, and a sense of community. One of the most

remarkable aspects of libraries is their universal accessibility, providing free and

unrestricted entry to all.
