Summer reading finishes strong; library readies programming around construction
Summary
Library director reported 864 signups and 582 completions (about a 65% completion rate) for summer reading, noted high community participation, and outlined plans to shift some programs off-site during upcoming Orleans/6th Street construction that will limit road access to the library.
The library’s summer reading program drew broad participation, with the director reporting "we had 8 64 people sign up for the summer reading program And we had 582 people complete and collect prizes," which the director described as roughly a 65% completion rate.
Staff warned that upcoming road construction around Orleans and surrounding streets will restrict direct street access to the library; the director said patrons will need to use the parking-lot/alley route and that some programming may move off-site (picnic shelter, pool or other community spaces) while construction is underway. The board discussed making adjustments to encourage continued attendance while the library’s main corner will be under construction.
